Exercise Equipment Tech AR
The advent of augmented reality software applications is having a major impact on the training and repair industry, and developers, entrepreneurs, and business professionals are taking notice. Augmented reality is the next advance in computer application design, using a camera as the source of its interface. With its ability to integrate virtual reality into a user's real world environment, augmented reality can craft detailed training experiences using dynamic and responsive virtual elements that are seamlessly integrated into a user's perspective. Apple and Android's recent launch of their AR development platforms, named ARKit and ARCore respectively, will make it possible for anyone with a smartphone or tablet to access augmented reality applications with their camera.
Augmented RealiTease is a full-service interactive multimedia company with a specific focus on the design and development of augmented reality applications, and, in response to the advent of ARKit and ARCore, they propose a set of innovative AR concepts geared towards the training industry. Exercise Equipment Technician AR can be used by the exercise equipment repair industry to guide technicians and trainees through the process of inspecting and repairing exercise equipment, using the advanced features and capabilities of augmented reality.
Need
Because the servicing of exercise equipment involves public safety, certified training ensures that repairs are made reliably, and with a mind to carefully check that repairs have been duly carried out prior to reuse. Technicians are trained in certified exercise equipment technician repair technical programs. While repair standards are not currently overseen by regulatory agencies, many manufacturers have instituted individual company programs to ensure that their equipment is properly serviced. Exercise Equipment Technician AR can act as a customized instructional manual for trainees to attain specific certifications for specific equipment, with the potential to become a comprehensive training platform for the exercise equipment industry.
Benefit
Exercise Equipment Technician AR can be used by individual manufacturers as a highly efficient method to carry out detailed exercise equipment repairs, with the potential to be used as a comprehensive training and repair platform for their entire product line. The dynamic and immersive properties of augmented reality can accelerate training and ensure safety, making Exercise Equipment Technician AR a valuable tool for the exercise equipment technicians.
Concept
Exercise equipment technicians fix and maintain treadmills, body trainers, steppers, bikes and other associated workout products. Exercise Equipment Technician AR can employ augmented reality to train prospective technicians, guide technicians out in the field, or even assist home users to service their own equipment. In each case, maintaining the highest standards for safety will be a top software development priority. Augmented reality excels in situations where precisely instructions can be provided in real time for an interactive, hands-on format. Exercise Equipment Technician AR will allow users to scan a specific piece of exercise equipment with a smartphone or tablet to obtain specific make and model information in the form of floating text captions. Individual components can be readily identified, and Exercise Equipment Technician AR will guide a user in the steps of making a complete repair. Operational graphics such as arrows and vectors for real-time dynamic instruction will make each step clear, and indicate what tools are needed for each type of equipment.
For example, in the case of a treadmill, Exercise Equipment Technician AR can show a technician how to lubricate the mechanism. Using a smartphone or a tablet, a technician will be guided to check that the power has been turned off and the unit is fully inclined. The application will then show the steps to inspect the worm gear and prepare it for lubrication. Exercise Equipment Technician AR will instruct the user to employ gloves, indicate the correct type of lubricant, show where in the worm gear mechanism the lubricant is to be applied, and how much is needed.
