It combined augmented reality (AR) with real-time communications to connect a field technician with an expert so that the expert can see and discuss the situation in the field.

Great and Easy to use Collaborative Tool - Vuforia Chalk

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Vuforia Chalk is a great tool for collaborative work, I deploy Vuforia Chalk for customers that require an easier and better way to implement remote support and help solve questions from the workforce. We also use Vuforia chalk to do remote FATs (Factory Acceptance Tests). Especially when the pandemic started and all traveling was canceled inside the country, we started using it as a tool to be able to do FATs remotely, supporting customers at a distance.

Pros

  • Remote support for technical issues in the factory environment.
  • Remote support for Factory Acceptance Tests, when traveling is not possible.
  • Remote support for issues in the industry, when traveling is not possible.

Cons

  • Web-version used to be a bit limited, in terms of users and features. Is on the roadmap to improve in future versions
  • No subscription version limited to 3 minutes calls.

Most Important Features

  • Group Calls
  • Augmented Reality annotations and tracking.
  • Web version allows for easier use.

Return on Investment

  • Savings in mobility (traveling) when performing determined Factory Acceptance Tests.
  • Customers like the possibility of engaging in Augmented Reality Solutions.
