In this on-demand webinar, Augmentir will discuss how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being used in manufacturing to address the growing skills gap problem. The skills gap problem, combined with a tight labor market, is creating increased challenges for industrial companies of all sizes.
To address this issue, companies are turning to AI to help their frontline workforce perform at peak quality, efficiency, and safety. In this session, Augmentir will share real examples of manufacturing companies that are using AI to provide personalized work instructions and targeted training based on worker proficiency, while also capturing and sharing knowledge of senior subject matter experts – turning undocumented tribal knowledge into a corporate asset.
This webinar is hosted in partnership with SME and Russ Fadel, Co-Founder and CEO of Augmentir.

In recent years, many manufacturers have turned to emerging technologies like Augmented Reality (AR) or Artificial Intelligence (AI) to solve challenges such as the imminent skills gap or the need to improve productivity and quality. What’s mostly overlooked though are the opportunities these technologies provide to connect and augment manufacturing workers to create sustainable value throughout the organization using a connected worker platform.
Leveraging AR and AI in a holistic manner allows manufacturing organizations to augment their frontline workforce with interactive and personalized instructions while also capturing human-centric activities that provide new insights into improving productivity, quality, and training.
Building these solutions on a dependable cloud infrastructure like Microsoft Azure means building on a foundation that provides a rich set of built-in connectivity and security features, which enable reliable and secure bidirectional communication.
In this on-demand webinar, you’ll learn how you can leverage the synergies between Augmentir and Microsoft to successfully move your manufacturing business to the digital world and:
Empower workers with personalized and dynamic work instructions to perform at their peak productivity
Close the skills gap by capturing tribal knowledge from experts and making that knowledge a scalable corporate asset
Use AI-based insights to continuously improve the performance of your frontline workforce
Get Microsoft’s perspective on emerging technology trends in manufacturing

Artificial Intelligence is a powerful tool to enable frontline workers in manufacturing to do their best work. While some fear that AI will eventually replace human labor, the reality is that AI-driven automation is not the solution to maximum productivity. Additionally, for most industrial organizations it is simply not feasible or even possible to automate processes that require human decision making or dexterity.
When we use AI to amplify worker activity, it becomes a tool that can quickly be leveraged by any sized manufacturing organization to continuously improve productivity and quality of work, while ultimately strengthening the position of frontline workers.
In this webinar you will hear Augmentir VP of Marketing, Chris Kuntz, speak about how industrial organizations can quickly realize the benefits of AI-driven optimization through Augmentir’s augmented worker platform.
