Elevator Repair AR
New developments in augmented reality software applications are beginning to have an impact on manufacturing and industry. Apple and Android have recently released their AR development platforms, named ARKit and ARCore respectively. This advancement makes it possible for anyone with a smartphone or tablet to access to augmented reality applications, opening up development opportunities across the entire range of software innovation. Augmented reality represents the next advance in interface design, with significant differences from virtual reality. While virtual reality offers a purely simulated experience, augmented reality combines virtual elements with a camera perspective for a unique integration of computer data dynamically linked to real elements in one's environment.
As a leading developer of cutting edge software applications, Augmented RealiTease launched its first augmented reality project in 2009. The release of ARKit and ARCore has prompted Augmented RealiTease to create a set of new AR concepts with immediate potential for development and implementation. Elevator Repair AR can be used by the elevator repair industry to guide technicians and trainees through the complex process of inspecting and repairing elevators in an augmented reality context.
Need
Elevators are one of the critical systems in high-rise buildings, with mission critical standards of operation. The state requires monthly inspections to ensure safety and elevators are continually serviced to guarantee safe and effective operation at all times. As one the highest paying jobs for blue collar workers, elevator technicians are in secure demand, and advanced training ensures a proficient workforce. The IUEC, or international union of elevator constructors, oversees standards for elevator technicians, and Elevator Repair AR will employ augmented reality to advance training for this highly lucrative field of specialized services.
Benefit
Elevator Repair AR will offer a highly efficient method to carry out monthly inspections, as well as provide a comprehensive training and repair platform for the elevator repair industry. Elevator Repair AR is another example where the dynamic and immersive properties of augmented reality can achieve expedited inspection and repair procedures in a fast-paced, demanding, and vital aspect of modern infrastructure.
Concept
Elevator Repair AR will be designed in accordance with state regulations and best IUEC practices. Users will access the app via their smartphone or tablet. For routine monthly inspections, Elevator Repair AR will be used to carry out the procedure with augmented instructions to bolster and support the process. Floating text will guide an inspector through each step, and dynamic labels will appear next to components and help interpret real-time data. Once keys are acquired for the firebox, the alarm will sound and the inspection will begin. Elevator Repair AR will label each step in relation to inspection. The door operation is tested, and the key from the fire box will be placed in the interior cab to turn off the alarm. Call systems will be tested. If there are any malfunctions, the inspections stops and work orders are immediately processed.
Elevator Repair AR will enable real-time work orders to be dynamically accessed and filled out for immediate delivery and efficient processing. As the technician proceeds from floor to floor, door operations and fire protection are inspected. After a successful inspection, Elevator Repair AR will be used to facilitate the completion of the monthly log for an archived and updated inspection record. In a repair context, Elevator Repair AR can be customized to address the repair process for a specific make and model of elevators, and help maintain predictive maintenance for continuous uninterrupted operations.
