Honeywell Enhances Your Industrial Training Experience with Augmented Reality Technology
HOUSTON, February 28, 2024– Honeywell announced it is adding augmented reality to its Immersive Field Simulator (IFS), a platform that uses the digital copy of a physical facility to provide targeted, on-demand training for the industrial workforce.
The company’s new Immersive Equipment Views, an exclusive iOS app for iPad, combines real-life environments with digital resources and content to deliver meaningful and useful training outside of the classroom.
Industrial users, who still have the option of complete virtual and mixed reality solutions, can now choose to train employees securely via a tablet, from anywhere, without any additional training types.
The company’s Immersive Field Simulator now mixes real environments with digital content in on-demand industrial training.
Using augmented reality and automation to solve workforce problems enables Honeywell’s portfolio to align with three compelling megatrends: automation, the future of aviation and energy transition.
“As the industry works to recover decades of lost experience with the retirement of an experienced workforce, Honeywell IFS offers a secure, interactive way to prepare new generations firsthand,” said Jose Simon, vice president and general manager for Honeywell’s Industrial Automation division in Latin America. “Honeywell is committed to adding value and efficiency to our customers’ workforce and industry globally.”
With Honeywell’s follow-up Immersive Equipment Views, combined with the Immersive Field Simulator offering, trainees can now troubleshoot and complete real-world tasks from an iPad. Additionally, users have access to detailed information regarding internal equipment parts and components, QR code-based machine scanning, and an educational hub of models and content for more comprehensive learning.
Honeywell IFS is available in two configuration solutions to meet customer needs and physical space requirements:
• IFS Integrated with OTS – “off-the-shelf” software (ready to use), which is the traditional solution that integrates with the existing training simulator.
• Standalone IFS – a new and independent solution, without being connected to the training simulator backend, without the need for OTS.
