Augmented Reality: The Game-Changing Tool for Technical Training

When it comes to teaching complex and technical concepts, it can be challenging to ensure that everyone understands the material. Fortunately, Augmented Reality (AR) has emerged as a game-changing tool for technical training. At Augmented Island Studios, we partnered with AmeriTex, a Texas-based company that produces cement pipes and culverts, to create an AR application that visually explains the process of installing concrete pipes and the benefits of using them in construction projects.

Our Partnership with AmeriTex and TCPA

Our company worked closely with AmeriTex’s engineers to develop an AR experience that helps different types of stakeholders understand the benefits of using concrete pipes. The AR application uses real-time 3D AR animations to show how the pipes are installed, and it also features voiceovers that explain each step of the process. Additionally, numerical guides provide technical details to make the experience even more informative. The application was so successful that AmeriTex donated it to the Texas Concrete Pipe Association (TCPA) (insertar link en la palabra , where it continues to be used to educate people on the benefits of using concrete pipes.

     
Benefits of Augmented Reality for Technical Training

AR has numerous benefits when it comes to technical training. With AR, users can visualize complex concepts in a way that is easy to understand. This is especially important for technical training, where the concepts can be challenging to comprehend. AR allows users to interact with the concepts, making them more memorable and engaging. Furthermore, AR can be used for remote training, enabling users to access training materials from anywhere in the world.

     
Augmented Reality and New Engineers

AR is particularly useful for new engineers who are starting in the concrete pipe business. With AR, they can visualize the concepts they are learning and interact with them, making it easier to understand and remember. AR can also help them see how different components work together, giving them a better understanding of the overall system. This can be incredibly beneficial for new engineers who are trying to get up to speed quickly.
