Augmented Reality & Mixed Reality - the advantages and profitability ...

Ever wonder, what can Augmented Reality [AR] do for your company? 

Well, AR has many advantages that improve efficiency in your business very fast and increase the profitability of your business. Many well-known organizations are already using the power of AR as a business strategy and it is benefitting them in many ways.

As Augmented Reality keeps getting popular, it is becoming a part of daily life across most of the world. Anyone with a smartphone with reasonably equipped computing power can use AR based apps without the requirement of any additional specialized hardware. Some of the industries already using AR extensively are:

 E-Commerce.

Online retailers are integrating AR to allow their customers to try-out the products virtually and decide on how the products will look in reality through VR positioning. Whether it is personal apparel or furnishing of rooms; customers have the option of trying-before-buying; as well as custom designing for tailored requirements. Retailers of beauty products use AR to enable their customers to apply virtual cosmetics.

Amazon just launched its “AR View” program, which enables customers to visualize how products from the Amazon catalogue will appear in their homes. Customers adore it since it saves them time and money, while allowing them to reach a correct decision without additional expenditure.

Immersive Reality thru’ AR

Ingenious techniques are being used by content creators to experiment with augmented reality, and create environments for industrial training, M-R-O and, social and business networking.

Maps.

With augmented reality and the devices’ geolocation capability, users can add tourist information to landmarks; bookmark stores, hotels, and restaurants, and display driving conditions clearly, among other uses. Google plans to provide augmented reality-based driving directions to its Maps functionality. Per their planning, when users use their camera to scan an area, they will be able to see the directions clearly mapped on their smartphone screen.

Companies like IKEA are utilizing AR technology to provide their clients the opportunity to experience first-hand how IKEA's furniture might look in their homes. The ability to virtually arrange furniture in your home and view how it would appear if it were there is a fascinating experience.

MR (Mixed Reality)

Similar to augmented reality, the mixed reality involves placing virtual objects in a real-world setting. This method, which aims to combine the benefits of VR and AR technologies, is still being developed. Mixed reality adds objects that the user can touch or handle while keeping them in their familiar environment. This technique blends virtual reality with augmented reality and such interactive options need specialized headgear.

Design.

Designing content in MR takes the user experience to a higher immersive level and helps to speed up the construction of 3D prototypes. There is improved prospects for highly interactive teamwork while creating a design process in MR which enables the team members to examine and analyze the modelling remotely, while making virtual modifications instantaneously.

Education.

Interactable 3D models that are added to the learning process aid in achieving much higher skills and knowledge levels. The learning effect is considerably more profound when the images from textbooks come to life around you and when you can touch and investigate them.

Healthcare.

Doctors can discuss detailed specifics of medical procedures using 3D holograms and mixed reality can be used to build the most cutting-edge operating rooms for higher rate of successful procedures, while allowing maximum safety and comfort to the patients.

Retail trade.

Consider a home redesign in MR where clients test out different paint colours, furniture, decor pieces, and floor textures before the actual work starts. This use case is similar to AR-based commerce applications, except that customers can control objects in their homes or places of work and virtually check their placement.

Today; augmented and mixed reality technologies are developing quickly as more organizations are understanding the advantages. Every year, new MR and AR use cases are being developed in novel and interesting ways that create better user experiences for all stake holders in business; from the providers to the consumers.

The AR / MR hardware sector is also developing technically. Mass market headsets are being developed rapidly, which will allow millions of users to access virtual worlds and transform the manner in which goods and services are consumed by customers. Smart phones are also developing in their technologies to allow more users to access AR and MR services seamlessly and without additional expenses.

The Executive Learning & Development Program from ARIS

The executive learning & development program is very crucial for the success of your company. Such a program will help in enhancing leadership skills of both white-collar and blue-collar workers, and help them by building efficiency in overcoming challenges and achieving strategic goals, at every level. Such an L&D program leads to improved performance of the organization as a whole, with higher levels of employee engagement with the company’s products and services, leading to higher profitability.

To develop an effective L&D strategy, it is important to start with a clear understanding of your company’s goals and objectives. This has to be achieved through a ‘assessment profile’ of the company’s current skill levels at every stage of the work force, from the lowest laborer to the highest executive; with a clear analysis of their competencies and skill-sets and identifying the areas where up-skilling and proficiency development is needed.

Upon the completion of the assessment profile is completed, the next stage is to develop and design a comprehensive L&D program, with clear goals, scope of training and deliverables. This should include a mix of instructor training, mentoring, academic coaching and on-the-job learning. The program should be tailored to the needs of every level of the company’s personnel structure, and specifically for the needs of every individual and should be designed to support their individual development; personally, and professionally.

It is crucially important that the L&D effort is aligned with the overall business strategy of the company and supports its long–term goals. This should be achieved by involving all stake-holders (workers and executives) in the planning and design process and with regular reviews and upgrades of the L&D program to ensure its relevance and effectiveness.

One of the key benefits of an effective L&D program is its potential of improved employee engagement and retention. When employees feel that they are being supported and that the company is investing in their emotional quotient, they have higher levels of motivation and commitment towards their work, which usually has a positive impact on the company’s functioning.  Additionally, an effective L&D strategy helps to create habits of continuous learning and skill development, which is crucial in today’s rapidly changing commercial environment.

In conclusion, an effective learning and development (L&D) strategy is essential for any organization that seeks to succeed in today’s highly competitive business arena. By identifying the needs of the organization and by understanding the specific needs of the workers and executives, a comprehensive L&D program can be designed and aligned with the overall business strategy of the company; leading to continuous skill–development that helps achieve success and growth.

Mentorship Guidance Program

All the stages of the program are stepping stones called the “Guide Path”.  Every step on this path has been streamlined through a process with a measurable outcome. The destination of the Guide Path or the goal of Mentorship is to create young leaders and budding entrepreneurs by making the student understand that:

Introduction on Mentorship:

Mentoring is being recognized across the globe as a powerful tool of human resource development. The fast changing industry perspectives in post-liberalization period in India expects management education institutions to keep pace with the fast changes on management requirements; to produce “readily deployable, industry ready professionals”.

The Indian management education system also faces challenges. Students are not meeting the readily employable standards. There is a big gap between what the graduates know and what knowledge is required of them by the industry. Industry experts feel that many students lack certain important skills like problem solving, decision making, leadership and team management. Therefore, industries end-up wasting time and capital in training fresh recruits to make them industry ready.

It is the need of hour to bridge the gap between the industry and the campus and improve the quality of education rather than increase the number of institutions. 

Objective of Mentorship Guidance Program:

Our focus is on the institutional ‘mission’ as a key factor of student learning experience, which is to “nurture holistic, socially responsible and continuously employable professionals”, for which we have to adopt a non - traditional approach along with a regular curriculum; to achieve the stated mission.

The benefits of mentoring on psychological, as well as career development issues are well established. Mentoring is increasingly recognized as an essential tool of human resource development. The most important benefits to students through mentoring is that it helps to provide a constructive and relentless honest feedback on one’s perceptions and actions and provides more clarity to the career.

The positive side of mentoring results in high satisfaction amongst all the participants in what they do and a greater involvement in activities which they consider as important to their career. Therefore, to achieve a more holistic career fulfillment and to prepare management graduates for the same, a new systematic mentoring approach has been considered in this Program.    

Vision and Mission:

We believe that to stay ahead of a continually evolving global ethos,  students require a education which grooms them into independent and able human beings who are competent to take on the challenges in their world with skill and confidence.

Vision - To be the most sought after destination for quality management education in India.

Mission - Nurture holistic, socially responsible and continuously employable     professionals.
