Oracle opens Industry Lab for AR training and education
On Tuesday, Taqtile entered a strategic partnership with Oracle to establish a Chicago-based facility that provides hands-on augmented reality (AR) simulation training for trainee frontline workers, customers, and enterprise partners.
The Oracle Industry Lab opened for attendees to experiment with immersive collaboration products from the Seattle, Washington-based firm. The lab provides multiple technologies from Taqtile such as Manifest, its AR immersive remote guidance platform.
The Vice President of Sales and Strategic Partnerships at Taqtile, Joe Clukey, said,
“The Oracle Industry Lab provides an unparalleled opportunity to collaborate with enterprise customers and explore new use cases and implementation scenarios for Manifest. Leveraging the power of the Manifest system with proven benefits of Oracle Database technology will deliver advanced functionality to our customers, such as the creation of work order systems that seamlessly sync between technicians in the field and headquarters”
Manifest integrates content and tools such as AR visualisations, real-world overlays, step-by-step videos, and holographic real-time 3D (RT3D) assets and others to assist industry operations.
Its remote guidance platform functions across large workforces to connect frontline workers with local or international technicians and trainers.
