Professional training in Augmented Reality AR for shop floor Applications (Pro-AR)

Augmented Reality (AR) is one of the main technology enablers for the digital transformation.

While the rapid pace of development in AR hardware and software enables more and more applications, it becomes difficult to keep track of the technological possibilities and limitations. Today, AR applications are mostly developed by specialists, who need to master different skills, including coding and 3D animation. This course utilises a simple-to-use AR application, to provide industry-centric training for executives and professionals and help them use AR in manufacturing. After teaching the fundamentals of AR, the training focuses on creating step-by-step instructions that are then enhanced with AR features. This enables professionals to create simple but useful AR instructions. The training also helps with identifying new use-cases for AR.
