• The two companies have partnered to power better interactions between operators and machines using spatial computing, improving manufacturing, assembly, and MRO workflows.

Paris. 17 June 2024 .  Hololight, the leading specialist in XR streaming solutions for industrial enterprises, today announced a new partnership with Seattle-based Taqtile, a renowned provider of spatial computing work assistance solutions. The partnership will disrupt the landscape of manufacturing and other critical industries by leveraging Taqtiles’ cutting-edge digital work instruction and remote spatial collaboration technologies with Hololight’s powerful XR streaming capability.

As a new member of Hololight’s ISV Partner Program, Taqtile’s flagship product, Manifest, has been integrated into Hololight Hub XR streaming platform to deliver value in industrial settings across work instructions, learning, training, and enablement.

Key use cases will use spatial computing to support equipment setup, inspection, maintenance, manufacturing, assembly, maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO). The partnership will improve inspection and diagnosis, maintenance and repair, operations and task management, remote assistance, safety and certification, and product support for front-line workers and deskless employees across various industries.

By utilizing the Hololight Hub infrastructure, Taqtile users will gain access to a centralized XR streaming platform that simplifies the distribution and management of AR and VR applications. This integration ensures seamless access to Taqtile’s tools, delivering high-quality, secure, and interactive training and support across various devices.

A Unique Value Proposition

Manifest empowers workers by providing access to spatial work instructions, optimizing critical learning, inspection, maintenance, and operational workflows, ensuring expertise is available anytime, anywhere. The platform is device agnostic and supports head-mounted devices, tablets, and web interfaces, ensuring flexible and seamless integration into existing business systems.

Taqtile’s Manifest has already demonstrated significant ROI for various high-profile clients including British Airways, Google, and the US Army, Navy, and Airforce. Performance improvements include reducing technician training time from 3 weeks to 3 days at PBC Linear, eliminating error rates from 92% to 0% at US Air Force 730 AMS, and cutting down task completion times from 2 hours to 40 minutes at PGT Industries. These metrics underscore the effectiveness of Manifest in enhancing accuracy, consistency, and operational efficiency.

Driving Business Value with Immersive Technologies
