Using Augmented Reality to Chart the Future of Aircraft Maintenance
Emerging Technology: Augmented Reality

Using Microsoft Hololens, we created a prototype to show the art of the possible in maintenance training.


The Challenge
USAF invited us to build a prototype using AR technology and develop a future-state concept to show the art of the possible for using AR aircraft maintenance training.

The integration of real-time data with multiple emerging tech concepts.
The Results
We used the new Microsoft’s Hololens medium to explore and visualize future-facing concept focused on aspects of the LEWSCI Vignette using a lean “MVP” approach. Our goal was to demonstrate how emerging technologies may be combined to assist personnel in maintenance and logistics tasks. Our prototype solution is untethered and incorporates a variety of technologies that offer augmented reality experiences with a greater degree of detail than previously seen.
Ultimately, our successful prototype integrated real-time data with multiple emerging tech concepts including artificial Intelligence and machine vision, conversational agents, natural language understanding as well as 3D visualization and animation.
