Digital Information Layered on the Real World
Mixed reality places digital information – instructions, diagrams, alerts, virtual components – directly into the physical environment the user is working in. Unlike VR, which replaces the real world, mixed reality augments it. The result is a powerful tool for situations where workers need contextual guidance without taking their hands off the task or their eyes off the work.
XRVZN builds mixed reality solutions for maintenance and repair training, step-by-step procedural guidance, remote expert assistance, quality inspection, and operator coaching on complex equipment.
Mixed Reality Applications We Build
- Maintenance and repair guidance – Holographic overlays that walk technicians through complex procedures step by step, with the relevant component highlighted in their field of view
- Remote assist – A remote expert sees exactly what the on-site worker sees and can annotate the real environment with instructions and visual markers
- Training overlays – Procedural training delivered in the actual work environment, with the real equipment, guided by holographic instruction
- Quality inspection – Comparing physical components to digital specifications in real time, with deviations flagged automatically
- Spatial documentation – Capturing and marking up real-world environments for planning, training, and knowledge transfer
Platforms We Build For
XRVZN develops mixed reality applications for Microsoft HoloLens 2, the most capable and enterprise-ready MR headset currently available. We also build WebXR-based AR experiences that run through a smartphone or tablet without requiring a dedicated headset, making AR guidance accessible anywhere a mobile device is available.
Mixed reality is most valuable in environments where workers need both hands free, where the task requires reference to the physical equipment, or where remote expertise needs to be delivered to a job site without the expert physically traveling there.
