Splashtop recently unveiled their AR remote assistance solution, which pairs with RealWear Smart Glasses. The move could potentially revolutionize industrial maintenance. Splashtop's daring move to greatly reduce the risk of dangerous work situations was announced on January 28, 2025.

With more than 30 million users and 250,000 businesses—including 85% of Fortune 500 companies—Splashtop already has a sizable market presence, reports Luke Williams in XR Today.

Key features

A full range of remote collaboration options are provided by the integration:

• Remote specialists can draw and highlight right in the worker's range of vision with two-way AR annotations.

• Clear communication is ensured by real-time camera sharing with integrated VoIP conversation.

• A safe file transfer method for exchanging technical instructions and documents

• For better visibility in low light, use a remote flashlight control.

• Capabilities to record sessions for training, documentation, and auditing

The system's hands-free design makes it especially useful in industrial environments where workers must use both hands to do intricate operations.

Repairs can be guided by remote specialists as if they were physically present with the wearer, potentially avoiding hours or even days of expensive downtime. The system guarantees smooth and rapid communication by utilizing high-performance technology that can support many monitors, operate at 60 frames per second with extremely low latency, and provide 4K HD resolution.

The efficacy of the system lies in its capacity to deliver immersive remote help while upholding safety regulations in the workplace. The platform's recording features offer useful documentation for training and compliance needs, and the combination with RealWear Smart Glasses guarantees that employees may receive professional guidance without sacrificing their capacity to operate safely and effectively.

According to Splashtop, their technology can increase safety in oil and gas environments by up to 70%, which is a noteworthy statistic for dangerous workplaces.

By addressing OSHA compliance directly, the platform makes identifying hazards as easy as looking at and chatting with the assistant.
