Recon and APX Deliver a Complete Smart-Eyewear Solution for Enterprise
Top Line: Recon Instruments, an Intel company, and APX Labs are launching a combined wearable-technology solution for enterprises looking to transform field service, maintenance, and manufacturing jobs. This solution combines APX’s Skylight software platform with Recon’s Jet smart eyewear.
Skylight, a full enterprise wearables software suite, running on Recon Jet, a cost-effective smart-eyewear platform optimized for high-intensity environments, allows workers to connect to back-end systems, control smart tools and machines, and collaborate remotely with colleagues. By deploying Recon Jet with Skylight, enterprises can leverage the benefits of smart eyewear to improve process efficiency, reduce equipment downtime, increase production quality, and lower costs, according to Recon and APX.
Close Up: Skylight on Jet enables the deskless work force to access task-critical information while keeping their eyes and hands on the job. Those workers can use Recon Jet’s integrated point-of-view camera to obtain live expert help, allowing tasks to be performed more effectively and accurately. The Skylight user experience on Recon Jet smart eyewear minimizes the interruptions and frustrations workers experience as they access the information needed to complete their daily tasks.
Vital Stats: Conceived and built for both enterprise users and endurance athletes, Recon Jet combines a smartphone-class wearable computer, an Android-based operating system, and an LCD display positioned just below the user’s right eye. These components are integrated into a highly adjustable, water-resistant, and modular smart-eyewear device that allows users to swap in spare battery packs and impact-resistant lenses.
