Ubimax announces the availability of Frontline Workplace MR for Microsoft HoloLens 2. With Microsoft’s smart glasses flagship being fully integrated into Ubimax Frontline, the proven benefits of the software platform, spanning end-to-end of the industrial value chain, are transferred to MR environments. Key to this technological leap is Ubimax’s unique authoring tool, Frontline Creator. Three-dimensional projects become feasible in a glimpse as AR workflows are translated into MR applications using the same backend as before. On top, Microsoft Azure Services are integrated into Frontline Creator allowing to simply obtain further Microsoft HoloLens 2 specific resources.
Frontline Workplace MR addresses use cases in which 2D smart glasses do not suffice due to the content that customers desire to display. For pdf files, such as blueprints or large manuals, the Microsoft HoloLens 2 is highly suited. Multiple windows with different information can be on display right in front of the user’s eyes, enhancing the amount of information accessible exactly when needed. With its eye tracking functionality, the Microsoft HoloLens 2 helps to navigate through texts: The glasses adapt to the user’s reading speed and automatically scroll down as the end of the page is reached. Ubimax customers get a truly hands-free user experience as one can control Frontline Workplace MR using only voice commands.
The maximized immersive effects when using the Microsoft HoloLens2 are particularly interesting for training scenarios. Employees can benefit from the third dimension as the interaction level with holograms gets increased. Passively absorbing information is replaced by actively experiencing it. With the intuitive full hand gesture control of Microsoft HoloLens 2, 3D models of component parts can be touched, grasped and moved in ways that feel natural.
