Training and educational experiences are now more immediately applicable than ever with mobile extended reality (XR) on XR-powered devices—providing workers and students the opportunity to immerse themselves in a wide variety of topics via virtual reality or augmented reality (VR or AR). No matter whether it’s perfecting a new surgical skill or building an engine, mobile XR enables us to acquire and use new skills in real time.
The Snapdragon XR1 Platform from Qualcomm Technologies powers stand-alone mobile devices like AR glasses and VR headsets, enabling workers in specialized fields such as technology, medicine, and even flight to access and immediately employ precise on-the-job training.
A field technician wearing Snapdragon XR1 Platform-powered AR glasses equipped with a camera and connected to the Internet through Wi-Fi or Gigabit LTE can receive real-time visual assistance from remote support staff—helping them repair equipment quickly and accurately.
Employing accurate and rapid knowledge can help save lives. Snapdragon XR1 Platform-powered VR experiences allow medical students to enter an immersive, state-of-the-art medical center and quickly learn the techniques for resolving emergencies like recognizing patient stroke symptoms using Think F.A.S.T (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) medical VR training. Surgeons can view patient vital signs or virtual 3D organ imagery on an AR heads-up display, helping to eliminate the need to look at multiple monitors and away from the surgical site. And with training via mobile XR, helicopter marshallers can give aircrafts more precise clearance for takeoffs and landings.
Students can immerse themselves in nature using Snapdragon XR1 Platform-powered VR headsets and AR overlays. With features like 6DoF head tracking and 3DoF control, the Snapdragon XR1 Platform allows for virtual re-creation of environments like the Amazon rainforest, where sights and sounds come to life smoothly and realistically using support for the Qualcomm® AI Engine, Qualcomm® 3D Audio Tools, and Qualcomm® aptX™ HD audio.
