Augmented Reality for Utilities — Most Popular Use Cases

CONFIRM TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION ​LINE DESIGN
Get the design right the first time and avoid delays, repeat visits and rework. 

Superimpose transmission and distribution line designs against the backdrop of the real world. Visualize and validate designs prior to construction. Includes:
  • Line clearance and transmission blowouts
  • Tower or pole height and placement with +/- 2 inch accuracy
  • Clash detection and overlap before construction crews arrive on site
  • Get faster customer sign off
