The partnership brings collaborative AR technology to improve product life cycles
TeamViewer’s new strategic partnership with Siemens Digital Industries Software brings powerful enterprise AR platforms to the fore, with its Teamcenter software.
With the new enterprise AR platform, Frontline, global customers can improve their product development process based on immersive experiences with interactive 3D content. This is connected to the digital twin of a product, where 3D models are easily modified. This virtualisation process enables more teams across the product lifecycle to collaborate and drive informed decisions in product innovation.
Innovating product lifecycle management space with augmented and mixed reality solutions
The new enterprise AR platform helps developers better manage Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) through the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio.
This solution for developers works as an end-to-end data and analytics suite that breaks down data silos across domains such as energy management, security and building maintenance.
TeamViewer plays the role of providing remote connectivity and workplace digitalisation solutions to support this.
Siemens Xcelerator comprises a curated portfolio ecosystem in an evolving marketplace to speed up value creation across industry, buildings, grids and mobility.
Metaverse takes designing a step up
Partner ecosystem grows through industrial metaverse partnership with NVIDIA for physics-based, immersive digital twin development
The Spatial module within TeamViewer’s enterprise AR platform Frontline enables employees wearing mixed reality smart glasses such as the Microsoft HoloLens to execute tasks in a more intuitive, interactive way by providing them with digital information, and three-dimensional elements and multimedia content in an augmented or mixed reality environment.
Virtual information or holograms are placed on top of objects in the real world to enrich each employee’s reality for visual process guidance. The built-in no-code editor, enables process owners to easily manage and update the underlying workflows without including their IT department, for example creating digital twins from CAD model data.
“Providing our customers with rich, immersive experiences is key to broadening the adoption of the executable digital twin. This is another way to bring together our community of designers, engineers and managers to engage with their product data using the latest interactive Mixed Reality technology,” said Tony Hemmelgarn, CEO and President, of Siemens Digital Industries Software.
With the added TeamViewer Frontline Spatial module, organisations can leverage their existing investment in CAD and PLM for increased productivity, efficiency, and process quality throughout the product development process and in aftermarket service and maintenance. It enables AR content creation based on PLM information without programming knowledge. The solution is expected to be available later this year.
Oliver Steil, CEO of TeamViewer said that the solution is offered as a managed service suite portfolio consisting of IoT-enabled hardware, software and digital services that are interoperable and flexible in an open platform. This platform is designed to “help customers to increase their productivity, efficiency, and process quality. by applying cutting-edge technologies such as AR and MR in the global tech ecosystem. This is a major driver for our growing enterprise business,” he said.
