Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the world was forced to embrace the new lifestyle of Social Distancing . Over the past few months, various forms of social distancing like complete and partial lockdowns, restricted attendance, etc. have come into play. To ensure connectivity during lockdown scenarios, the workforce and the learning community have been forced to take up remote work and online classes. Though this trend had been picking up at a snail's pace in the recent decade, it took the Covid-19 pandemic, sadly, to thrust this in top gear to help the general public find their place in a dystopian setup. Changing a Supply-Chain Management model overnight is impossible and can bring a business to a halt. As we look at Technology to rescue us, one such promising field is Augmented Reality which works by superimposing information on objects.  Augmented Reality for Enterprise  Today's enterprises operate in highly complex, diverse, and dynamic environments. The enterprise sector is ...

What is Geo AR?  Geo AR stands for geospatial augmented reality service. Everyone knows about Pokemon Go, where the players had to "hunt" for Pokemon monsters based on their locations. Simply stated, Pokemon Go used this revolutionary Geo AR feature to set up Pokemon monsters at various locations across the world. In simple terms, the phone uses the Global Positioning System (GPS) and determines the coordinates on the world and communicates this location to the phone's camera. The camera, in turn, shows AR content on the phone to highlight various parameters in a place like directions, places, markers, or even the next step to be taken by a person in that location.  Use Cases for Geo AR  1. Show appropriate directions to help travellers in new locations  Some of the obvious use cases for Geo AR are in the travel industry loosely. Imagine a traveller in a new location and trying to find a hotel. With an appropriate Geo AR marker, the traveller can find directions...

The last decade has seen Extended Reality solutions permeate and gather better acceptance in the Learning and Development community. Traditional Learning & Development solutions provide a linear approach to learning. Augmented Reality (AR) is different with its exploratory learning approach. AR builds upon traditional learning and development models and piques the curiosity of the learner to interact with the provided content and learning materials. Does everyone learn at the same pace? While all learners are not the same, the learning material is the same. AR provides the learners with the unique advantage to choose their own learning pace and can start from anywhere in the learning curve. This advantage, coupled with the immersive, engaging, and collaborative content will prove to be a blessing for Learning and Development professionals and the learning community at large. AR positively enhances the learner's engagement rate with its interactive medium. As per a rep...

How is the Covid-19 situation limiting our nature to stay connected? In an isolated environment due to social distancing, the only way to connect is via Technology. Though the Internet has provided us with a million ways to connect via social media, messenger, and video conferencing, the ability to connect in the third dimension, space, is what makes life meaningful. But the more we interact in real life, the more we stand to risk our lives in the process due to the Covid-19 situation that has taken the world hostage. We human beings are social beings by nature. It is only due to our ability and character to connect with others that we are able to shape ourselves. Is technology helping us really? Newer technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT) feed us with a lot of information to the point of an overkill. This is why it is said that " Beyond the age of information, is the age of choices."  And that begs the question, how do we make choices in our daily life? M...

The immersive technologies, i.e., augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) which are combinedly known as XR is said to be providing immersive and experiential learning environments so that the future workforce can be prepared through it. XR is an umbrella term for both AR and VR where it is availed for the training initiatives in the workspace and it has been spun across various industries.  With the help of XR led workforce training, there are benefits like increase in employee engagement and improvement in productivity since the technology is able to mimic real-life situations. With the help of XR hardware, the employees can practice on a lot of training applications which is from safety to potential customers and task-specific modules for the hard skills and for the leadership development; there is the use of employee scenarios.  Since the trainees are receiving immersive and fun learning experience, it is not only more engaging to them but also they are intere...

HoloPundits first started out as an innovation center where now it has become a professional set up with the inclusion of technological expertise that goes all over VR, AR, and mixed reality. Although our inceptive aim was on HoloLens, we have now spun over completely to provide vehement services to the customers globally.

If books were required to make reading an interactive experience, pop-up books were the go-to one. But with the rise of augmented reality, publishers are now equipped to bring stories to life in a completely new way. The augmented reality platform has become an emerging technology with the aim of bringing interactive learning experience to life. Through this, the users can vehemently explore new application in the publication which takes printed images on the book to a whole new level with the application of Augmented Reality (AR) technology.  Through these applications, a unique experience is provided to the readers on mobile devices. The AR technology combines club animation with real-time where it brings fresh digital entertainment experience to the readers of magazines and books. Furthermore, the AR technology in publication displays the 3D models, video playing, 3D animations, websites, video playing, and web server connectivity for kids so that they can receive the educa...
