Extended Reality (XR) for the Automotive Industry
Streamline manufacturing, training and customer service with hands-free video technology
Conquer production stoppages
The problem
The world might be getting smaller, but that doesn't make travel any easier. When machinery breaks down, it's often necessary to bring in experts from other factories – or even other countries. This comes at a great financial cost, but manufacturers are left with little choice. Either you shoulder the cost or face a total production shutdown.
The solution
Embrace remote collaboration and make travel costs a distant memory. Our assisted reality headsets can instantly connect technicians with specialists, anywhere in the world.
Thanks to built-in, head-mounted cameras, experts enjoy a close-up view of the action and a seamless voice-video link. Plus, with advanced collaboration tools, it's easy to communicate the finer details of the process.
Be prepared
Be prepared – avoid unforeseen production stoppages.
Cost savings

Connect workers

Culture of safety
Keep staff safe and productive with easy-to-wear, distraction-free headsets.
Deliver better, more efficient training
The problem
The automotive industry moves fast, so technicians must stay up to date with the latest procedures. However, this requires significant investments of time, money and resource. Rolling out training to a national or global workforce is a monumental task. But that's only half of the problem – experts must be available at all times to ensure new standards are understood and adhered to.
The solution
Make life easier for everyone. Turn training into an unlimited, fast-access resource.
Using our wearable assisted reality devices, technicians are empowered to seek help when they need it. They can access training materials as they work, right from their headset. Or they can call for specialist help in an instant, allowing experts to deliver voice-led guidance via video link.
The tech works the other way around, too. Using just one headset, PoV training demonstrations can be recorded for future use or delivered instantly to staff around the world.
Innovative training
Embrace new ways of training without costly seminars or complex multi-site rollouts.
Collaboration
Collaborate effectively with high-quality video and in-picture annotation tools.
Connect experts
Make expert help instantly accessible with fewer resource demands.
Safety conscious
Maintain safety standards – lightweight headsets allow for total situational awareness.
Create virtual showroom experiences
The problem
Cars are important purchases. Customers, understandably, want to get the measure of a vehicle before they buy. However, this presents challenges for dealerships. Either you keep every make and model of car in stock, or you leave potential buyers unsatisfied.
The solution
"Abracadabra" any car into existence, whenever you like. Using lightweight smart glasses, customers can view augmented reality cars that look just like the real thing.
This eliminates the need for expansive showroom space and gives customers the "hands-on" experience they need to make a considered purchase.
Just like magic
Magic realistic cars into real-world environments using augmented reality.
Empower employees
Empower staff with compelling new
sales tools.
Customise
Let buyers customise cars and view the results instantly.
Better use of space
Eliminate the need for costly showroom space or dormant stock.
Connect with customers
The problem
Mechanics want to deliver great customer service. This means keeping customers up to date with repairs and involving them in the process where necessary.
However, car maintenance is complicated – it can be very difficult to explain intricate repairs by phone or email. And all it takes is one misunderstanding to leave a customer dissatisfied.
The solution
Let customers see through your eyes. Simply slip on a pair of smart glasses, and you can connect instantly via voice and video link.
Now you can talk through the repairs, aided by high-quality video that puts customers at the heart of the action.
"See what I see" video
Conquer miscommunication for good with streaming PoV video.
Connect anywhere
Accommodate everyone – customers can tune in from any web-enabled device.
