visualizer

The mission:

Visualize what seems impossible: As part of its Non-Traditional Player Initiative, Airbus wanted a drone operations management platform: virtual and cloud based. The goal? To visualize future elements of the air combat system that are currently not physically feasible or available - a real look into the future, so to speak. 

The realization:

To design such a technology, we worked with aerospace pioneer and cloud provider Cloud Arat to develop an Augmented Reality app that uses HoloLens and HoloTable to bring the simulations to life firsthand. Once the HoloLens is set up, the various data of the drone mission is superimposed on and around the HoloTable. The HoloTable thus becomes a digital theater of operations with which different users can interact simultaneously.

The result:

The app thus became an innovative interface of AR and intelligent cloud, enabling virtual monitoring of real drone operations in an AR environment. In this way, not only were the benefits of the pioneering air combat system accurately visualized, but Airbus employees themselves became an active part of the visionary experience.
