Mixed reality is transforming the way inspections are carried out, delivering remarkable cost savings by optimising operations. By digitalising the NDE process, the reliability and repeatability of routine precise measurement data can be significantly improved. With the arrival of HoloInspect by Quasset, the future of inspection is here, transforming the conventional Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) methods into the digital world. HoloInspect is an intuitive mixed reality application solution that efficiently integrates all NDE related processes and techniques into a single MX device.
Empowering workers with digital tooling boosts productivity and enhances on-site safety. With HoloInspect, the augmented technician can quickly visualise, convey and interact with 3D data. Gains in efficiency are remarkable as workers can quickly expedite their data collection workflows. It provides instant remote assistance making collaboration seamless.
