AR Business Certification
As new AR applications are being created across the entire spectrum of the software development landscape, many businesses are beginning to see the opportunities for AR in ongoing training and certification programs.
Augmented reality is an immersive and interactive format that employs the camera on a smartphone or tablet as the source of the interface. This allows for a wide range of 3D virtual data to be combined with actual elements in a user’s unique vantage point. The virtual world can be designed to mesh seamlessly with the actual perspective, detailed equipment simulations, 3D avatars, and 3D virtual objects that can be manipulated in real time. Floating text, charts, and other graphics can be introduced into the view to link information to both real and virtual objects for enhanced instruction. High resolution graphics allow for vivid, photorealistic accuracy, and efficient graphic speeds allow instructions to be delivered through operational arrows and audio prompts for a completely immersive experience.
The ubiquity of augmented reality will enable anyone with a smartphone or tablet to access AR applications, and new methods for instruction will be developed for all sorts of instructional and certification programs. As a leading innovator in the world of interactive multimedia experiences, DDA has taken its extensive experience in mobile software design and development and has launched Augmented RealiTease, a company devoted specifically to the development of state-of-the-art AR applications. To inspire prospective clients, Augmented RealiTease has created a list of potential AR applications for business, entertainment, and the medical field to show just how much augmented reality can do.
AR Business Certification is one of the many types of instruction and certification programs that can benefit from the implementation of web-based AR for its online instruction platform.
Need
Certifications are often required to operate commonly applied pieces of equipment in all types of applications. The need for an efficient, reliable, easy to use, and easy to access training and certification program is significant. AR Business Certification can serve as a one-stop-shop for all of the resources required to implement a fully operational certification program that’s available for anyone with a smartphone or tablet, and with no additional download of software.
Concept
A web-based AR app developed for companies that rely on certification programs to allow a portal for users to train, pass, certify and recertify for updates and renewals. OSHA is the regulatory body that oversees safety and compliance standards for all types of businesses and industries. They currently certify operators in HVAC, plumbing, electric, and many types of specialized equipment. Web-based augmented reality can be used to great effect in the training and certification of equipment operators. Users can access the app on their smartphone without the need to download any additional software. From their camera view, users scan the equipment and receive real time instructions.
Floating labels, operational arrows, and other graphics can provide an immersive and convenient method for delivering in-situ instructions, making the learning experience more hands-on and dynamic. Augmented reality has the capability to fully simulate equipment for risk-free training, that can progress to an actual environment with actual equipment with virtual instructions delivered in situ. A comprehensive training solution can be implemented to take a trainee from an initial, risk-free online training simulation to an augmented situation where users operate the real thing, with guided instructions, testing, and a reliable certification process.
Benefit
AR Business Certification will add value for the training process by providing detailed training information in a risk free environment. Equipping a user with the virtual tools in an actual environment creates an excellent setting for a comprehensive training and testing solution that takes maximum advantage of the capabilities and features of augmented reality. Web-based AR is scalable, customizable, cost-effective, immersive, with greater levels of photorealism and graphic speed, and introduces a complete e-learning experience within a real-time 3D environment. AR Business Certification can potentially be used for all levels of training and incorporated into certification programs.
