At ARize, we have utilized AR technology to allow our partners to create immersive extended reality. Moreover, experiences with their smartphones; no apps or additional software are needed. It’s fully accessible to everyone who wants to partake, and anyone can use it. But we’re not the only ones using AR to disrupt the tech space. AR is finding applications in other industries worldwide. Today, we will look at sectors that use AR and are expected to go far in 2022.
AR in Manufacturing
Manufacturing has many complex tasks and processes that require precise and accurate decisions and actions within tight turnaround times. Through AR technology, helping the workforce through remote support makes it quicker and easier to collaborate, make decisions, and carry them out. Using AR, experts and managers can give real-time instructions to site workers and even show them how the job or task needs to be done.
Many site workers have issues getting to grips with machines or combatting machine failures, breakdowns, etc. Through AR, downtime due to problems can be reduced, saving time and money.
AR in Education
AR is set to revolutionize the field of education, making it more engaging for staff and students.
Teachers can use AR to create immersive worlds to teach children more creatively and engrossingly, mainly through 3D modeling. It can replace the traditional way of learning and allow children to experience education in a new way. Whether on a virtual field trip to the Louvre in Paris or giving an inside look at the human body and how organs work. This type of visual learning could help many children understand what they need to know, helping those who also find it difficult to retain knowledge in the current teaching system. AR technology is used to improve the way that students learn in schools.
AR in Healthcare
The healthcare industry is embracing AR to improve patients’ and staff’ knowledge and understanding. From helping medical students to learn with AR environments of the human body and cell structures to show patients exactly what is wrong with them. And what needs to be done? Augmented reality offers the healthcare industry a whole wealth of opportunities.
It can also help innovate by allowing surgeons to view patient anatomy in AR environments. To practice surgeries or show other surgeons procedures in real-time, allowing them to assist with advice and let specialists consider accurate representations of a patient’s anatomy, also allowing them to diagnose and move forward with research on unknown diseases much more quickly.
AR in Travel
Many countries are embracing AR to enhance their tourism industries, which is only set to continue in 2022, making tourist experiences even more special. Tourists can now take fully interactive AR tours of an area before they visit or while in their hotel. Meaning they can see where they are visiting and plan their trips accordingly.
Even before going on holiday, people can take 360-degree tours of places they plan to visit, helping them make informed visits of which countries they want to see, which areas they want to go to, and what to expect when they are there.
AR is disrupting industries left, right, and center. Finally, this will only continue as the tech becomes more advanced and accessible to everyone.
