But I've heard and seen so little use in any industries. I would have thought at a minimum that having access to hands-free information retrieval (e.g. blueprints, instructions, notes, etc), video chat and calls for point-of-view sharing, etc would be quite useful for a number of industries. There do seem to be interesting pilot trials involving Hololens in US defense (IVAS) as well as healthcare telemonitoring in Serbia.
Do you know of any relevant examples or use cases, or are you a user yourself? What do you think are the hurdles - actual usefulness, display quality, cost, something else?
We haven't been able to get a contract in nearly two years. Almost all of our competition in this sector have gone bust, and my company is about to follow suit.
The answer appears to be "no". The industry at large does not have enough interest in AR/XR to sustain any sort of competitive business to provide those products.
