Major Takeaways:

  • ScopeAR showed off their ScopeAssist system, which uses 3D augmented reality animations to provide non-technical users with instructions that appear over their real-world counterparts.
  • More recently, ScopeAR launched RemoteAR, similar to ScopeAssist, but also uses telepresence to include a live expert providing instruction.
  • RemoteAR will allow experts to communicate and solve issues without having to be available on-site, potentially incurring downtime and travel costs.
