LightGuide AR Platform
LightGuide augmented reality uses digital projection technology to overlay a virtual operating “canvas” onto any work surface, simplifying complex manual tasks. By interfacing with existing manufacturing and warrehouse software and equipment, the system delivers immersive, interactive visual work instructions that comprise a company’s key assembly, inspection, material handling, and training operations.
ProGlove Wearable Barcode Scanner Integration
LightGuide integrates with ProGlove wearable barcode scanners to streamline material handling for fast, accurate fulfillment. Pairing ProGlove with SpotGuideAR adds an extra edge, as spotlight projection technology guides workers visually, while ProGlove delivers crucial instructions directly to their hands, dramatically enhancing workflow efficiency and accuracy.
- Haptic Feedback: LightGuide uses 3D sensors and ProGlove wearables to confirm bin selections and provide haptic feedback. A subtle glove vibration alerts you if you reach for the wrong bin, preventing errors and optimizing workflows for an intelligent warehouse.
- LED Lights: ProGlove’s LED lights offer immediate visual feedback. Green indicates a correct action, while red signals an error. LightGuide leverages this system to reduce mistakes and improve accuracy.
- LED Screen: ProGlove’s small LED screen displays essential information like item numbers and bin locations. LightGuide uses this to provide instructions directly on the glove, minimizing the need for workers to check separate devices, speeding up the process.
