- All AREA members seek to reduce cognitive load and increase performance and memory encoding of workers during the performance of complex tasks. - To date, the role of stereoscopic vision in AR experiences in spatial understanding and memory has not been studied. When these are better understood and the impacts are quantified, designers of experiences and interfaces will be able to accelerate memory anchoring and spatial awareness. - Determining the specific contributions of AR to human memory and cognitive functions will contribute to calculating return on investment on AR in enterprise, justifying investments and removing enterprise AR adoption barriers.
Read More- Employees of AREA members may work in conditions that are highly stressful and/or require postures that introduce risk of injuries. Others must concentrate while working in environmental conditions that are known or anticipated to produce risks to employee well-being (e.g., around vibrations or loud machines). Body-worn sensors can detect abnormal behaviors in the workers' involuntary bodily functions, postures, and use of body parts. - The implementation of body-worn sensors could be controversial if their ability to protect user data privacy is not clearly demonstrated. - By using a body-area network and connecting it with their AR display, an employee...
Read More- Most of the leading AR display component and system manufacturers are AREA members. - Use of wearable AR displays in AREA member settings is limited by many factors, one of which is the size and weight of the display needed in order to store sufficient energy to power the computational processing requirements of AR experiences. - The issues of power storage to deliver energy for a full work shift can be addressed through reducing local (on-device) processing and power requirements, and increasing storage capacity. - Having continuously generated power from a source such as the movements or environment of...
Read More- Wearable AR displays provide frontline workers in AREA member companies with information without requiring the user to hold a display in their hands or look away from their tasks while obtaining instructions. - However, deploying display devices with entirely different form factors than those widely adopted, developing and deploying appropriate software, and integrating and training users on the new devices introduces time and expenses – particularly if handheld displays have been well-integrated in the current procedures. - The AREA members need ways to measure and/or to calculate the investments and benefits of using different form factors in the workplace.
Read MoreThe 17th AREA Research Project AI-Enabled Smart Glasses for Enterprise The term ‘AI-enabled smart glasses’ covers vastly different devices, architectures, and AI integration models, making like-for-like comparison difficult for enterprise buyers. This research cuts through the noise with a device taxonomy, a Landscape Catalog, and an AI Capabilities Analysis grounded in structured practitioner interviews across...
