Augmented Reality
Quicker design process
Augmented reality for maximum transparency and system security
Just imagine: You don't just inspect your design on the screen, but the virtual model in reality. This is possible with the AR feature that igus will integrate into the online tool platform. And this is how it works: Configure the product, call up the AR model and test it. The result: greater transparency and planning reliability, faster design process. Use your smart phone, tablet or smart glasses to view virtual models in reality. And you can design different models for maximum ease of viewing. Benefit from fast, cost-effective feasibility studies and check product integration in advance. This saves you time and money and allows you to recognise potential errors even before a prototype is created - on the virtually projected model of the digital twin.
Ron, a senior engineer at a mechanical engineering company, is currently planning a larger facility. In order to ensure that the robot fits into the production environment and that suboptimal design details are detected and corrected at an early stage, he is testing the igus augmented reality software for the first time. He looks at the true-to-scale 3D system models in the iguverse on his tablet and projects them into the real environment as a virtual model. In some cases, feasibility studies help him find the best detailed solution. Ron is enthusiastic and sees igus inside as a glimpse into the future of system planning, where he can save time and money.
How to plan your application with igus augmented reality
Your benefits from augmented reality
Tech up
- Check construction design as a virtual model in reality
- Maximum transparency and planning reliability
- Quicker design process
- Check product integration in advance
- Cost-effective, time-saving gateway to the world of Industry 4.0
Cost down
- Fast and more cost-effective feasibility studies instead of complicate, time-consuming CAD visualisation
- Identify potential errors at an early stage to save rework costs during development
Sustainability
- Fewer physical prototypes needed, so less waste and emissions
