What is the difference between Vuforia Studio and Vuforia Engine?

Vuforia Studio is a highly efficient end-to-end authoring tool that seamlessly integrates into ThingWorx. This means that you can easily utilize IoT data to create meaningful and actionable augmented reality (AR) experiences tailored to specific audiences. Using Vuforia Studio greatly increases the speed of development and accessibility for non-developers.

Vuforia Engine is a software platform for creating augmented reality applications (apps). A highly flexible and powerful development framework takes the complexity out of AR development. Developers can easily add advanced computer vision functionality and AR to existing applications. This allows apps to recognize images and objects, and interact with real-world spaces.

ENHANCE WORKFORCE PRODUCTIVITY

Vuforia Instruct is an out-of-the-box solution that enables industrial organizations to leverage their 3D CAD models to easily create, deliver, and scale interactive work instructions to frontline workers for assembly and quality use cases.

Fast, Simple Authoring

Vuforia Instruct’s secure, web-based platform can be accessed at anytime from anywhere. It enables authors to create step-by-step, accurate instructions to drastically reduce many steps that are usually necessary for building AR content.

Improved Process Performance

The delivery application allows workers to carry-out inspections efficiently through clear communication in the easiest, most accurate way and it provides real-time data capture for clear traceability.

Consolidated Analysis & Reporting

An integrated portal equips stakeholders to stay up to date with usage activity from the field or the shop floor, enabling accuracy for audit and compliance purposes and boosting continuous advancement.

Utilize CAD Investments

Spread the value of 3D CAD to your frontline workers with easy-to-use, helpful information (connected to the actual product) – removing the need for interpretations and conjecture.

HOW IT CAN HELP

Augmented Reality (AR) work instructions drastically reduce mistakes that happen with traditional training and instruction strategies. Capture input related processes to distinct processes that can be shared easily for traceability and improvement.

With Vuforia Instruct, frontline workers benefit from in-context, digital 3D work instructions overlaid onto the parts to be inspected, that communicate inspection procedures. This enables workers to improve their accuracy and productivity, resulting in reduced costs and fewer production delays.

THE BENEFITS ARE REAL

IMPROVE
quality to drive business value

SAVE
time and money authoring CAD-based data

PERSONALIZE
user experiences for executing work instructions

ENABLE

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Below you’ll find answers to our most commonly asked questions.

You can count on personalized support around the clock by email, live chat, or by joining a live webinar.

What is Vuforia Expert Capture?

Vuforia Expert Capture is AR software that captures expert knowledge and best practices and scales them to the broader workforce. Vuforia Expert Capture enables tenured employees to capture step-by-step procedures and best practices for reusable process documents, and training materials.

How does Vuforia Expert Capture work?

Vuforia Expert Capture uses the Vuforia Capture app and an eyewear device such as HoloLens to allow you to record video procedures step by step.
As you record, explain what you’re doing and why. Be concise and refer to an outline or script. The resulting recorded output is called a “capture.”
By plugging your eyewear device into a computer, you can save the file and upload it to Vuforia Editor to build out your procedure.
Use content from your captures along with any uploaded images or videos to create steps and publish the finished procedure.
Now others at your organization can find and view the procedure. View procedures using one of two apps:

-Use the Vuforia Vantage app to view procedures on a mobile device or tablet.

-Use the Vuforia View app to view procedures using a RealWear or HoloLens eyewear device.

What are common Vuforia Expert use cases?

Vuforia Expert Capture enables industrial manufacturers to address vital use cases across the enterprise such as:

Set Up and Changeover to ensure faster and more accurate line ramp-up & changeover time.
Machine Operation to provide employees with standard procedures to ensure safety & compliance.
Maintenance Instructions for machines on the factory floor where the manufacturer doesn’t have relevant CAD data for the machines.
Assembly to help improve the speed and accuracy of new or seasonal employees.
Field Service to provide OEM service technicians with step-by-step AR-guided instructions on how to service/maintain/repair equipment at a customer site

Can Vuforia Instruct & Vuforia Expert Capture be used together?

Yes. Vuforia Instruct and Vuforia Expert Capture work seamlessly together to dynamically guide procedures. This captured knowledge and highly-engineered 3D content address a wide range of use cases across an enterprise.

How does Vuforia Expert Capture link procedures to specific products and equipment?

Publish procedures in Vuforia Editor and view them in Vuforia View or Vantage’s procedure library. Access step by step instructions by scanning a QR code or URL link. Attach QR codes and URLs onto technician work orders, equipment, or in a content management system for printing.

What are the benefits of AR guided procedures and employee training?

AR-guided procedures help frontline workers do their jobs in a more productive, accurate, and safe way. Better instructions and guidance supports optimized manufacturing, service, and training operations.
