Augmented reality (or AR) technology uses digital visual elements to create an enhanced version of a real-world environment.
Industries like insurance, manufacturing, construction, and property are increasingly adopting AR technology applications to perform diagnostic, maintenance, and repair tasks.
Read on to discover how AR technology applications, like Fixzy, can create cost-efficiencies and rapid response resolutions in property maintenance.
How Augmented Reality Works Using End-to-End Visual Assistance
Fixzy’s remote visual assistance technology is powered by computer vision, AI, AR and proprietary deep learning solutions. Our solution allows field service and customer service agents to provide live video guidance for maintenance and emergency issues in real-time.
How Does Augmented Reality Technology Work in Property & Home Repairs?
AR technology applications work by highlighting, measuring or overlaying computer-generated perceptual elements into physical spaces.
With a tool like Fixzy, tenants or homeowners use an AR hand overlay that provides clear guidance to select areas of a property with an on-screen pointer.
Users can then choose from a range of tools, including 3D room planners and document sharing, to access the assistance they require. Fixzy works anytime, anywhere.
