• Cost savings from catching design and engineering flaws earlier and using construction sequencing to keep projects on schedule
• Winning more projects by presenting buildings to clients in VR and creating leave-behind AR applications
• Faster time to market by enabling collaboration and communication between trades and federating data from different software ( e . g ., Revit , Navisworks , Rhino , etc .) into one model
• Higher employee retention rate by increasing workforce productivity and safety through interactive VR and AR experiences
Case study : Howden and Vuforia Studio
The challenge : Glasgow-based Howden , a global engineering business which manufactures turbo blowers , needed to find a better solution to scale product expertise to internal teams . They often need to travel to train sales teams and support manufacturing and field service teams – a time-consuming and costly process ( all the more challenging in the pandemic ).
The product : Vuforia Studio is an AR authoring and publishing solution which leverages existing 3D CAD models to facilitate product demos and training experiences .
The result : A comprehensive AR-enabled training and product visualisation experience that enables experts to support multiple teams in different locations .
