Taqtile’s innovative AR platform now allows compliance workers to conduct fast and efficient remote inspections
Taqtile, a US firm specialising in augmented reality (AR) enterprise workflow solutions, announced on Thursday it had added features to its Manifest platform, allowing remote and deskless workers to perform inspections and eliminating the need for paper-based processes.
Workers can now conduct inspections, quality control checks, and audits remotely via the innovative software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform, digitally transforming a formerly complex process into a streamlined, highly efficient and integrated process with AR.
Upgrades to Manifest Platform
The Seattle, Washington-based firm’s innovative platform untethers organisations from the ‘paper chase’ by incorporating compliance, maintenance, and other regulatory processes on head-mounted displays, complete with all the tools needed to inspect company equipment, workspaces, and facilities.
Deskless workers can also trace the entire process via their iPads or headset devices across procedures, from start to finish, to record data for reports, compliance tasks, and future reviews.
The firm explained its platform can also record completion evidence, fault reporting, and highly-detailed work logs for company records, as well as provide added interoperability with other enterprise apps.
The platform also provides real-time guidance from remote experts to check collected data, and the solution can also employ spatial mapping to overlay, locate, and note specific concerns in a facility.
Manifest can also share files such as video and pictures for remote viewing from experts, and devices can stream real-time video to collaborate with others.
Kelly Malone, Chief Customer Officer for Taqtile, said,
“Manifest enables organizations to institute new levels of accountability for critical inspections. Antiquated paper-based processes for conducting inspections are full of holes, prone to mistakes, and lack the ability to be reliably tracked, making inspection digitization a strategic priority for many of our customers”
One possible use case mentioned by Taqtile was the inspection of sanitary conditions in lobbies, meeting rooms, dining halls, and others, where the solution could potentially provide reliable findings.
Teams could also perform such tasks for other facilities, regardless of geography, to conduct inspections and compliance while minimising risk and keeping critical records of all procedural steps.
Taqtile Manifest Milestones
The news comes as Taqtile reached several key milestones in recent months, namely amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which accelerated the need to innovate remote enterprise solutions.
Taqtile reached several key milestones after it integrated its platform on numerous devices such as the iPad as well as Magic Leap, RealWear, and Microsoft HoloLens 2 mixed reality (MR) headsets.
The firm also joined Nokia to integrate its solution on the latter’s MX Industrial Edge ecosystem to access its huge and expansive customer base, applications, and company assets.
Earlier this year, the firm was also awarded a massive deal with the US Army to integrate their solution into the Augmented Reality Maintainer-Operations Relay System (ARMORS), allowing military staff to conduct preventative maintenance remotely and securely.
The AR firm also published a case study involving PBC Linear and Magic Leap headsets to instruct young learners in manufacturing, allowing students to upskill while performing complex tasks using the platform with photos, 3D visuals, and streamed video.
