Augmented Reality 101: An Overview of AR for Business Leaders

Augmented reality (AR) began as a concept in science fiction but has matured into a powerful tool that can benefit businesses.

Innovating manufacturing scenarios

Multiple input options, an expansive FOV, stunning resolution, Dynamic Dimming™ technology, and industry-leading spatial audio. Magic Leap 2 features bring the most advanced enterprise AR solutions to your manufacturing operations.

From training and upskilling to machine repair and quality assurance, Magic Leap 2 can benefit nearly every facet of manufacturing. Collaborate over expansive floorspaces or across the world, scrutinize details down to the nuts and bolts.

Magic Leap 2 in manufacturing scenarios

Dynamic Dimming™ technology

Use augmented reality solutions in bright industrial lighting with Magic Leap Dynamic Dimming™ technology. Its Segmented Dimming™ feature can be used to focus attention.

Visualization

Design, simulate, and validate manufacturing automation equipment in-situ while your physical manufacturing line remains in operation. Leverage converged data integrated with operations to layer data within your field of view, or use Segmented Dimming™ to key in on specific interactions or mechanical components within sprawling environments.

Training and upskilling

Use remote assistance, "see what I see," and digital twin to keep your workforce current and competitive. Immersive AR training solutions reduce time to proficiency and democratize expertise for even the most infrequent—yet critical—tasks.

Complex assembly and guidance

Computer vision and AR can simplify complex tasks like assembly, repair, and maintenance with in-place, contextually-triggered step-by-step instructions.

Remote support and collaboration

Enable expert collaboration between coworkers—remote or in-person—with immersive features like industry-leading spatial audio and "see what I see."

Data visualization

Recontextualize complex data into immersive, interactive visuals to guide decision-making.

Situational awareness

Enhance your digital twin with real-time material, employee, and equipment information to track movements and interactions.

Safety and compliance

Ensure safety compliance and check construction plans by overlaying augmented reality models onto floor spaces.

"Manifest on the Magic Leap device is essential for PBC Linear's future and the future of US manufacturing as a whole."

Improve clinical scenarios

IEC 60601 certified.
Suitable for both OR and non-OR clinical use.

Magic Leap 2 supports customized third-party health solutions, assisting medical professionals in tasks from patient assessment to post-surgical recovery.

The IEC 60601 certified Magic Leap 2 is designed for use both in and out of operating rooms with Dynamic Dimming™ technology, a precise controller, and other industry-leading features.

Our collaboration with healthcare software developers brings the expertise of leading engineers to deliver world-class, customized solutions to our industry-leading hardware.

Magic Leap 2 Med Tech in clinical scenarios

Precise, accurate control

The Magic Leap 2 Controller offers world tracking and 6 degrees of freedom—giving you accuracy and precision that purely gesture-controlled augmented reality headsets lack.

Dynamic Dimming™ technology

Dynamic Dimming™ technology lets you use the IEC 60601 certified Magic Leap 2 in brightly lit operating rooms by dimming the display to make digital content clear, legible, and vibrant.

Remote assist

Connect experts with medical professionals in remote areas. Use collaborative viewing and “see what I see” technology to assist in challenging, complex procedures.

Anatomic overlay

Navigate instrument position accurately and precisely to properly visualize points of interest deep in internal anatomy by superimposing digital content over a patient.

Presurgical planning

Plan surgeries and other procedures in detail before a single incision is made by rendering diagnostic data as a 3D model and collaborating virtually with specialists.

Visualization

Bring CT scans and MRIs into three dimensions for a scalable, interactive, multi-user view. Use Magic Leap 2 to place important information like patient medical records, scans, and x-rays in or just outside your field of view—keeping it available at a glance for quick, hands-free reference.

Education and training

Instruct fellows, residents, and medical students in anatomy, diagnosis, treatment, surgery, and more. Create sample cases and scenarios that are as straightforward or novel as needed.

Patient engagement

Improve patient experience and informed consent. Guide patients through their diagnosis and treatment, using 3D scans and renderings to help deepen their understanding of their case.

Post-surgical recovery

Provide ongoing consultations by connecting instantly with patients virtually, viewing collected data from remote monitoring, and even assessing the progress of physical rehabilitation from a first-person patient perspective.

Assessment

Physicians can use Magic Leap 2 to help guide assessment with eye-tracking analytics and other data relating to disorders and injuries such as concussions.
