MREG: Bridging the Distance Between Remote Workers

Mixed Reality Expert Guidance (MREG) is an augmented reality (AR) enhanced secure remote video support tool connecting field technicians to Subject Matter Experts. MREG significantly reduces work execution time by providing guidance from experienced workers on demand and avoiding workers leaving sites to resolve issues. This offers real-time instruction, support, and assistance regardless of distance or time zone, and allows both parties to see and interact with the same view simultaneously. Take a closer look at three different scenarios when MREG brings workers together.

  1.

Employees can use live feeds from their smartphones or tablets to discuss projects as if they were in the same room and map annotations to the video using AR (Augmented Reality). This capability promotes seamless collaboration among distributed teams, leading to quicker decision-making, reduced travel expenses, and more efficient project management. Employees no longer have to travel in order to work hands-on together. Instead, they can experience the same detail and effectiveness of in-person collaboration with the convenience of remote flexibility.

Inspectors can use augmented reality to highlight defects, compare products to design specifications, and perform detailed inspections more rapidly. It also allows multiple people to take a close look at a highlighted area all at once. This reduces the risk of defects escaping into the market, ultimately improving product quality and customer satisfaction.
  3. Training andCloseup of female hand using a smart phone. Shallow depth of field Onboarding: MREG can accelerate the training and onboarding process for new employees. By providing immersive, interactive training experiences, new workers can quickly learn complex procedures and gain hands-on experience in a safe virtual environment. It also allows trainees to experience real-world scenarios in a remote setting, allowing information to be shared widely and effectively. This helps new employees become productive faster, start their jobs more prepared, and ultimately improves overall efficiency.
