Compare TomorrowThings vs. smartAR

Our advanced automation SaaS platform enables the swift creation of digital replicas of your industrial resources at the simple touch of a button, significantly reducing integration expenses by up to 90%. With AI-driven capabilities, you can effortlessly generate a digital twin of your technical assets. This technology allows for the real-time representation of physical components, workflows, and even complete manufacturing facilities. By conducting simulations, you can explore various scenarios before executing them in the real world. This approach enhances production line efficiency, anticipates possible complications, and supports informed decision-making based on data. Through the collection and analysis of data from machinery and sensors, users gain critical insights for operational improvement. The blueprint system seamlessly connects machines with a single click, facilitating data collection and transmission, which in turn elevates decision-making, enhances operational performance, and supports sustainability efforts. Furthermore, this blueprint technology fosters plug-and-produce integrations and encourages compatibility between machinery manufacturers and industrial software solution providers, ultimately driving innovation across the sector. With our tool, businesses can not only streamline operations but also adapt swiftly to changing market demands.

Designed for organizations that create extensive and intricate prototypes, the aim is to minimize the variety of prototype iterations produced. smartAR™ superimposes a digital counterpart onto a live camera view of a tangible object, ensuring that the CAD model’s scale, placement, and orientation align with the physical item. Users view the digital twin through a tablet, which is closely monitored by an external motion tracking system that observes both its position and orientation. This tracking facilitates remarkable precision when aligning the digital twin with the physical object. As users navigate around the real-world item, the virtual images displayed on the tablet stay consistently fixed in relation to the object. Furthermore, virtual data can be accurately positioned on the real-world object, achieving a precision of better than 3 millimeters in most stationary perspectives. The TGX software from Mechdyne allows for seamless access to high-resolution CAD files from centralized workstations or servers, effectively reducing latency on the tablet, thus enhancing the user experience. This combination of technologies not only streamlines the prototyping process but also ensures that users can interact with their designs in a more effective and realistic manner.
