Augmented Reality… Enhancing Human Effort

Luminaries - Talking to the Brightest Minds in Tech

Imagine you’re remodeling a building and you need to reroute the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. You put on a pair of glasses, look up, and see the entire proposed new duct work as though it were already installed – including the places where it might interfere with the existing structure.

Or suppose you’re a quality assurance technician with a hundred-item checklist to work through. Instead of consulting a manual, you see each item on the list displayed right next to its real-life counterpart. These are just two of the hundreds of business applications for augmented reality.

These devices promise to revolutionize the way we work, from assembly lines to server farms to boardrooms. On this Luminaries episode, DAQRI CEO Roy Ashok explores what the tech is doing now, and what’s just over the horizon.
