Table-top AR refers to any 3D content that represents a product in its entirety. Product-overlay AR describes 3D content that's overlaid onto a physical object in the real world.

Assisted reality refers to any technology that allows a person to view a screen within his or her immediate field of vision, hands free. It differs from augmented reality in that the information on the screen is not overlaid onto a physical environment.

Empowering people who maintain and repair equipment with augmented reality involves identifying content that's appropriate for AR and reusing engineering CAD data to produce 3D technical illustrations.

Discover how augmented reality in field service is allowing teams to follow complex maintenance procedures, remotely assist customers, train novice technicians and more.
