The Military & Aerospace Electronics take:
14 June 2022 -The HoloLens is a mixed reality technology which allows two individuals to work on the same aircraft, even if they’re thousands of miles away from each other. This technology translates to cost savings for the customer and higher morale and confidence for FEAM Aero’s maintenance technicians, according to Diaz.
“We actually had a recent scenario where our director of AOG was wearing the HoloLens and communicating to a FEAM Aero AOG tech in a different part of the country and guiding this person on how to troubleshoot a specific system,” he said. “It was out of the scope of expertise for this one individual but he knew he could rely on someone else in another part of the country.”
FEAM Aero currently uses the HoloLens internally and has plans to roll it out to its customers in the future.
“The next phase would be where our customers’ field tech support would wear that and could guide our technicians on the field to repair a system or issue,” he mentioned, noting this offers huge benefits for the customer.
