Intelligent AR: Fueling Digital Twins for Energy & Utilities

Nov 10

02:45 PM - 03:40 PM

Description

Augmented Reality for enterprise applications has been advancing. Scores of pilot projects have proven the ROI of AR solutions and we’re beginning to see production systems in daily use. Still, enterprise use cases are particularly challenging. Advancements in augmented reality for the energy and utilities fields have, in some ways, lagged behind progress in other industries. In other ways, these markets are poised to leap ahead. Simultaneously, the convergence of spatial computing, AI and Digital Twins is providing fertile ground for “Intelligent AR” to become the essential user interface for field workers.

This panel of distinguished experts from the oil and gas, electric utilities, and geospatial data communities will discuss their perspectives on evolution of enterprise AR. They’ll offer use case examples and practical lessons-learned. They’ll also offer their visions for future development. The panel will conclude with a Q&A session and offer suggestions for how new participants in the AR ecosystem can get involved.

Description

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.
