And, harness the power of service billing, standard reports, inventory management, and real-time routing and scheduling. With the RealWear Intelligent Field Services, you can outfit your crew and connect to big data and AI to increase productivity and reduce errors by over 30% while increasing safety.
Field Services
Safety
Problem
Field service is fraught with dangerous situations with electrical equipment and heavy machinery; all have the potential to cause injury. Low situational awareness further amplifies safety hazards.
Our Solution
Full voice-control of our RealWear assisted reality solutions enables hands-free picture taking, access to electronic work orders, and real-time video calls with dispatch centers. It allows field service workers to maintain full situational awareness as they complete their tasks in hazardous and dynamic environments.
Productivity
Problem
Geographically dispersed field workers need to perform maintenance work in potentially hazardous situations and require immediate remote support and visualization of real-time IoT data of specific assets.
Our Solution
Field workers can reference technical documents, collect and visualize data, as well as contact support all while performing manual tasks with RealWear. This leads to better decision-making and improved efficiency, with time savings upwards of 200%.
Compliance
Problem
Field workers must provide documentation of what they did and when for their customers. Without records of equipment maintenance or installation procedures, for example, non-compliance may lead to heavy penalties and closure.
Our Solution
Field service workers can take still images and videos for substantiation, inspection, safety, and quality for improved compliance using our devices. Preset workflows enable the creation of digital logs which ensure every step is completed in the right sequence and saved for future use.

Rail Cargo Virtual Inspection with HMT-1 and Space1
Concert well testing live performance digitally integrates all aspects of well testing to introduce information transparency through new levels of collaboration and accessibility.
RealWear & Ferry Electric 1
At Schlumberger, prior to equipment leaving the yard, the HMT-1 connected worker can scan, pull in a pump type, and populate the types of inspection checks that must be done on that specific unit, all hands free. Our devices can provide guidance through checklists and are also integrated directly into backend systems.

Communicating in an oil refinery, for example, can be challenging. Watch as Team RealWear visits a Harley dealership for a face-off between an iPhone and RealWear’s head-mounted Android device, testing noise cancellation while remotely collaborating and running a ten-point inspection of a Harley bike.
