Lessons Learned from XR Practitioners

Nov 10

11:50 AM - 12:45 PM

Description

If you are tasked with implementing AR and VR in your company then this session is for you. It can be difficult to separate the hype from reality when it comes to implementing emerging technologies. Everything works great in a pre-recorded demonstration online and it might even perform well in a training center or conference room. But we live in the trenches and it’s a different environment there. In this session we will hear from real industry experts that have forged the path by putting technology in the hands, and on the heads of factory workers, warehouse employees, engineers and technicians on the front lines. During our discussion we will discuss:

The toughest lessons we’ve had to learn in implementing XR
Where have we found allies in our journey
What obstacles stand in the way of adoption
The right way to look at vendor relationships
Why there isn’t one solution for everyone and how to deal with this reality
How to manage expectations with your leadership and customers
Is COVID helping our hurting the business of Extended Reality
Pro-Tips on how to simply get things done in XR

You’ve been told it works, you’ve seen it work, and maybe you’ve even made it work—but why does it work? Even enterprise developers and pilot champions do not always know the robust research that lives in the bones of their wonderful products, and to no fault of their own. The XR industry has somewhat overused valuable terms and frameworks (presence, immersion, transfer, embodiment, recall, DICE, etc.) for the worthy sake of speed of communication to the hoi polloi, but at the expense of breaking down the mechanics that would create a dialogue to push our products and pilots to the bleeding edge of efficacy. This I promise: the words you use will change your outcomes.

To that end, in this talk I’ll cover the aforementioned broad vocabulary, add some depth to each item with research and stories (near transfer, far transfer, embodiment congruency, contextual learning, Zone of Proximal Confusion, etc.), and end with a few practical examples of how these terms will very practically impact your simulation design and execution.

As we embark on our digital transformation, the digital twin has become a more central focus in our strategy. Enterprises with distributed facilities, regardless of how many or few, are challenged to digitalize because our workflows are spread across too many unintegrated platforms. Allow me to share our vision, our journey, the wins, and the pitfalls as we forge ahead into the METALverse with Beamo.
