Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Vuforia Chalk facilitates AR remote assistance between your experts and field technicians. It's an easy way to solve complex or unfamiliar problems. Your organization can benefit via reduced repair time and travel costs, as well as better knowledge transfer from an aging workforce to new employee technicians, with the devices already in their hands. The powerful remote guidance experience of Vuforia Chalk combines live video, audio and the ability for both the remote and local participant to annotate their live shared view. Annotations in Chalk accurately stick to real-world objects, even when people move around, utilizing advanced augmented reality developed on the best-in-class Vuforia AR platform. Vuforia Chalk enhances troubleshooting and support far beyond simple "see what I see" apps. What will you 'Chalk' first?
