Session Name: | How AR is Transforming the Building and Construction Industries |
Speaker(s): | Scott Montgomerie |
Company Name(s): | Scope AR |
Track / Format: | Innovation |
Overview: | The construction, building and utilities industries have at times been slow to adopt technology in the past, sometimes even called "old fashioned". However, they are quickly becoming breakout success stories for applications in AR, and the construction and utilities spaces are ripe with opportunity to take advantage and lead the adoption of this technology. In this session, Scott Montgomerie, co-founder/CEO/CTO of Scope AR, will take a case study approach to show how high-caliber organizations including Caterpillar Inc., Martin Bros. and others are changing how their organizations work around employee training, collaboration, machinery repair, troubleshooting and diagnosing problems, and more through innovative uses of augmented reality. He will also discuss how AR tools can automatically collect data and provide actionable insights, resulting in improved comprehension, efficiency and knowledge retention for enterprises. |
