), empowering them to create digital canvases of spaces such as factories,

malls, or offices for advanced spatial computing (

) applications.

 

As one of the leading emerging technologies, spatial computing powers digital

twin renderings to support the activities of machines and people, as well as

environments in which they operate. When deployed across the industrial

enterprise, spatial computing enables seamless interactions between employees

through AR, enabling companies to close the loop on performance management,

improve machine learning capabilities with spatial analytics, and optimize

design and factory floor operations.

 

"Vuforia Engine Area Targets is a one-of-a-kind solution for large, persistent

AR experiences," said Mike Campbell, Executive Vice President and General

Manager of Augmented Reality, PTC. "Whether users are looking to add navigation

to their office building or view in-context data on a factory floor, Area

Targets is the answer. We're pleased to be expanding such a key capability and

component of PTC's spatial computing vision."
