A Practical and Proven Platform to Resolve Your Manufacturing Challenges

LightGuide’s augmented reality (AR) software platform transforms manual processes by projecting digital step-by-step work instructions onto an employee’s work surface, standardizing and error-proofing the work. Coupled with 3D sensors and vision cameras, the system prevents and detects errors in real-time while capturing data and insights on your operator’s performance and quality.

Projection-Based AR Guidance

Eliminate defects and improve efficiency by transforming manual processes into visual AR workflows for real-time operator guidance. LightGuide Projection AR creates a high impact, high resolution, hands-free user experience.

Confirmation and Error Prevention

Our platform uses 3D sensors and vision cameras to detect errors in real-time, preventing defects and ensuring no-fault-forward quality control.

Real-time Analytics and Insights

Capture real-time operational metrics for full digital traceability in complex manufacturing processes and uncover powerful insights with the Data Hub. It’s enterprise-ready and easily interfaces to cloud analytics platforms.
