ICYMI: March 2023 Industrial IMMERSIVE Top Story Roundup

/

As we wrap up the first quarter of 2023—believe it or not—it’s time to look back at the top stories for the Industrial IMMERSIVE community so far this year. 

Industrial Immersive Use Cases

Immersive technologies—augmented, virtual, and mixed reality—are being used in industrial environments with great, if quiet, success.

Toyota, Volkswagen, ASK Chemicals, and more are using immersive tech to train employees, capture legacy knowledge, run simulations, and more. 

Toyota Training

Speaking of Toyota using immersive tech to train employees, here’s more on how they’re doing it. Specifically, Toyota Material Handling is using XR to help train team members on how to leverage the latest tools safely.

Dealers across North America can enter a virtual world and build the skills they need to manage equipment safely, saving time and money on travel and training equipment.

Building in the Metaverse

The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry is using the metaverse throughout entire projects. Virtual construction projects are helping increase safety, reduce change orders, catch problems early, and give stakeholders a look into buildings before they exist in the physical world. 

The entire design, engineering, and construction process can move faster with the ability to collaborate from anywhere in the world.
