Air forces
Technical squadrons, industrial workshops, schools: the technician follows the procedure in augmented reality, on the aircraft, both hands on the tool. Everything works offline: your technical data stays on the base, and none of it passes to the software publisher.
We don’t know what our customers do, and we don’t need to know.Emmanuel Bricard, co-founder.
Your challenges
Every newcomer must be trained on the job, and every departure takes know-how with it.
When teams rotateEvery hour an experienced technician spends explaining is an hour less on the aircraft.
Old and new fleets coexist: some procedures are only carried out now and then.
It has no business being in a cloud or on a phone: it stays on the base, under your sole control.
100% offlineWhat SHIFT89 changes
What the experienced technician, the newcomer and the team leader experience.
On base, on deployment, in a sensitive workshop: everything works without a network, artificial intelligence included. No data passes to the software publisher.
Learn moreThe procedure is displayed on the aircraft, right where action is needed. No tablet resting on the wing, no document to leaf through with gloves on.
Learn moreThe experienced technician passes on a procedure in a few minutes, on the aircraft: no writing, no filming, no mandatory editing.
Learn moreA quiz checks that the procedure is understood; you track who has learnt what, and where people get stuck.
Learn moreUse cases
The procedure guided right beside the aircraft, without tying up your best technician for each newcomer.
The same task from one team to another and from one site to another, passed on using the real equipment.
The expert’s procedure available right where action is needed, whatever the specialism.
Review a rarely performed procedure just before carrying it out, on the aircraft.
The departing technician passes on their procedures on the aircraft, in a few minutes per procedure.
The difference
Every tool has its strengths. Here is what these approaches impose by nature, and what we do differently.
What we equip
Aircraft support, with tools as close as possible to the task.
Our hardware advice
Having worked in industry ourselves, we advise our customers as we would have done for ourselves: the device suited to your conditions of use, the length of your programmes and your budget. Only operational solutions.
Devices that work without any connection, from first to last use.
Hangar, workshop, extended wear with your protective equipment: we advise you on the hardware suited to your environment. Some conditions (outdoors, cold, explosive atmospheres) require a case-by-case study.
Hardware chosen to last and to be supported; your content does not depend on a single device.
Turnkey: we configure each device and fit it with the necessary accessories, so that it works in your environment and with your constraints. What we prepare
Works on: Microsoft HoloLens 2, Arvicom CART-S, Samsung Galaxy XR, VITURE Luma Ultra XR, XREAL Aura and VIVE Eagle, and soon Arvicom CART-3D. Your content does not depend on a device.
Measured results
Figures measured during our deployments, a method validated by 5 industrial PhD theses and evaluated against Microsoft Dynamics 365 Guides.
Industrial research
Our method stems from work carried out with Institut Mines-Télécom in a boiler manufacturing plant. It was compared with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Guides.
Result: a study published at IEEE ISMAR 2022, the leading international conference on augmented reality.
Funding and procurement
An off-the-shelf solution, on quotation. It is up to the buyer to qualify their contract, according to the rules that apply to them.
One licence per device, glasses or headset, with volume discounts, and one licence for the PC application. Your choice: annual licences, multi-year licences or licences for the lifetime of the hardware. A quotation based on your project.
A one-hour scoping session by video call, one day on site with up to 8 of your experts, then standard project management. Additional support days when your project requires them.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. No connection is required, whether to create, to learn or to track learners. The artificial intelligence (transcription, translation, voice) also runs on your computers, offline.
The official documentation remains the reference. The tutorial complements it: it shows the task on the aircraft, right where action is needed, and can be updated in a few minutes when the documentation changes.
It also makes training far more engaging and effective, particularly for younger generations. And it enables independent training, where there is no safety risk for learners.
Finally, it becomes your training standard: all learners are trained the same way, and this standard improves continuously, incorporating the best of your past, present and future trainers.
Bringing a camera-equipped device into a protected area is subject to the approval of the site security officer: your rules apply. On our side, images stay on your equipment and none are sent to the software publisher. We do not know what our customers do with our solution, unless they tell us and share their content with us, on their own initiative.
At SHIFT89, we support HoloLens 2 until at least the end of 2030, so you can use your investment for longer. #AugmentedTraining needs no connection to work: your HoloLens 2 headsets can therefore be disconnected from Wi-Fi, for maximum security.
Your content does not depend on a single device: several augmented-reality glasses and headsets are compatible. We advise you, completely independently, on the one that suits your operating conditions and your budget.
All content created with #AugmentedTraining on HoloLens 2 can be reused, without being redone, on the new glasses and headsets we support.
No. #AugmentedTraining is already in service, in defence as well as in industry and education. Your trainers are trained in one day: they create their first tutorial that same afternoon, then, from the next day, as often as is useful.
Accreditation is a decision by the authority that operates the system, for a given system: we do not claim it. Under a non-disclosure agreement, we provide the technical documentation useful for your process.
A 30-minute to 2-hour demonstration, on one or more of your real cases, on an isolated network if needed.
