Challenge

  • Measure the benefits of an augmented reality application to support sorting the DELL volume by destination
  • Full immersive 3D environment with visual aids for the sorter
  • Hands free operation with smartglasses • 8 weeks proof of concept

Objective

Sorting Performance
Analyze and measure whether an AR smartglass system for sorting outperforms a traditional manual sort approach in terms of sorting time and error rates

Employee Well-being
