Thyssenkrupp Claims Up to 4x Faster Workflow with HoloLens
Microsoft announced yet another exciting partnership for HoloLens today — thyssenkrupp, an industrial engineering company best known for their elevators — continuing to prove how useful augmented reality is in the workplace.
The announcement video shows off the HoloLens workflow for thyssenkrupp's stairlifts to help those with mobility and accessibility problems up and down household staircases so that people can be "mobile in the own environment."
Installing stairlifts can be challenging because every home staircase is unique and there is no one size fits all lift for them. Every stairlift must be customized to each individual staircase, so measuring, manufacturing, and installation takes quite a bit of time. Using the HoloLens can make these steps more efficient.
