Cloud-Based AR/VR Technologies Transform the Retail Sector

Manufacturers are witnessing the next phase of technology innovation that will transform how they function, which is pushed by consolidating the digital and physical world to build a better, intelligent, and efficient way of operation.

Fremont, CA: With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, retail manufacturers are continually finding opportunities to build better efficiencies while safeguarding their employees’ and customers’ health.

Technology has helped retail manufacturers to manage factory output amidst the challenges presented due to the pandemic. Mixed reality (MR) technologies offer an immersive experience that brings virtual objects into reality or blends the physical world with the digital world.

MR technologies like augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are expected to grow increasingly over the next few years, and more manufacturers are taking advantage of this technology.

Retail manufacturers need to be careful on how they create and execute these technologies as there are major differences in the platform they are designing and optimized for use.

Although technologies such as AR/VR have been used for some years, retail manufacturers have implemented virtual solutions designed on an on-premise environment, where data is stored locally. On-premise AR/VR infrastructures restrict the speed and scalability required for today’s virtual designs and reduce the capability to carry out knowledge sharing between organizations, which can be vital when creating new products and understanding the appropriate way for virtual buildouts.

Manufacturers can address these issues by implementing cloud-based or remote server-based AR/VR platforms powered by distributed cloud architecture and 3D vision-based artificial intelligence (AI). These cloud solutions deliver the required performance and scalability to bolster innovation in the industry.

Manufacturers are witnessing the next phase of technology innovation that will transform how they function, which is pushed by consolidating the digital and physical world to build a better, intelligent, and efficient way of operation. Technologies like AR and VR are playing a critical role in driving this transformation. Organizations adopting these solutions will benefit from these technologies and collaborate with suitable providers to help scale without hindering technological growth.
