This Tuesday at the Augmented Enterprise Summit (AES) 2022 in San Diego, Arvizio, a provider of augmented and mixed reality (AR/MR) industry 4.0 solutions, showcased its Instructor service, its immersive remote guidance solution on Qualcomm and Lenovo hardware.
Arvizio highlighted how frontline workers could leverage the AR Instructor platform on Qualcomm Snapdragon Spaces and Lenovo Thinkreality A3 Smart Glasses, powered by a Motorola 5G smartphone.
Great shout out from @BrianVogelsang of Qualcomm during his keynote at #AES2022! Stop by booth 203 for live demos of Arvizio’s AR Instructor with #Snapdragonspaces using #Lenovo ThinkReality A3 smart glasses. @Snapdragon #ThinkReality @Lenovo pic.twitter.com/bFc9MFpYnB

AR Instructor from Arvizio is a no-code remote guidance solution which overlays step-by-step visual directions into a worker’s field of view. The platform displays information such as video clips, images, 3D models, and real-time 3D (RT3D) AR annotations.
With Arivizio’s service, workers can connect directly with remote experts or mentors, and lets a wearer share their viewpoints.
This allows remote collaborators to create interactive mark-ups for additional guidance or work validation, and is also an inoperable solution that works between different hardware platforms.
Jonathan Reeves, the Chairman of Arvizio, said that cross-platform solutions are critical to adopting AR in an enterprise space. He added that Arivizio clients could operate its solutions across standalone headsets, phones, tablets and AR smart glasses powered by mobile phones.
Reeves also added,
“The AR Instructor solution exemplifies the extensibility of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Spaces and feature-rich OS for augmented reality applications. We’re excited to work with Qualcomm as we focus our combined synergies with industry-leading AR solutions”
Additionally, Arvizio is part of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Pathfinder Program for accelerating AR adoption in enterprise environments. Additionally, the partnership provides Qualcomm early access to Qualcomm’s hardware, project funding, and co-marketing.
More on Snapdragon Spaces and Pathfinder
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Spaces is an ever-growing ecosystem accelerating enterprise immersive solutions to match modern client demand and grow the talent pool of extended reality (XR) developers.
Snapdragon is also an openXR ecosystem that aligns with the Khronos Group, which champions openXR standards and practices.
During a keynote at the Immerse Global Summit (IGS) Europe 2022, Qualcomm announced heavy investments into the foundational technologies powering XR solutions like passthrough, hand-tracking, and 3D reconstruction.
At the keynote, Senior Director of Qualcomm’s Product and Partnership, Team Martin Herdina, explained that the Snapdragon Spaces platform is transitioning from a developer-focused AR software development kit into an ecosystem that engages with XR developers directly.
Through its Pathfinder programme, Qualcomm funds XR startups working on Snapdragon Spaces. The programme provides capital to motivate and incentivize XR startups to participate in other networking and funding opportunities.
