挑战
每架新的波音 747-8 货机都有 130 英里的布线,从驾驶舱到轮舱隐藏在头顶和脚下。
每架波音飞机,从主力机型 737 到新的 787 梦幻客机,都有多种配置,每种配置都有自己的接线方案。在过去的几年里,技术人员使用充满图表的“电话簿”来完成他们的工作。即使使用笔记本电脑,也会出现同样的基本问题:当工人得到指示并交叉检查图表和示意图时,会出现持续的视线中断。
客户
波音公司
关于客户
波音公司是一家美国跨国公司,在全球范围内设计、制造和销售飞机、旋翼机、火箭、卫星和导弹。公司还提供租赁和产品供应
解决方案
Skylight 在取景器中为波音的技术人员提供他们需要的指令。无需移开视线或点击笔记本电脑:他们可以通过语音命令、Glass 触摸板和头部跟踪界面在多个提示中移动。像“本地搜索 1-8-6-A”这样的简单语音命令会为每条最后一根电线调用正确的分步原理图。

Case Study
Airbus Soars with Wearable Technology
Building an Airbus aircraft involves complex manufacturing processes consisting of thousands of moving parts. Speed and accuracy are critical to business and competitive advantage. Improvements in both would have high impact on Airbus’ bottom line. Airbus wanted to help operators reduce the complexity of assembling cabin seats and decrease the time required to complete this task.

Aircraft Predictive Maintenance and Workflow Optimization
First, aircraft manufacturer have trouble monitoring the health of aircraft systems with health prognostics and deliver predictive maintenance insights. Second, aircraft manufacturer wants a solution that can provide an in-context advisory and align job assignments to match technician experience and expertise.
Case Study
Aerospace & Defense Case Study Airbus
For the development of its new wide-body aircraft, Airbus needed to ensure quality and consistency across all internal and external stakeholders. Airbus had many challenges including a very aggressive development schedule and the need to ramp up production quickly to satisfy their delivery commitments. The lack of communication extended design time and introduced errors that drove up costs.

Developing Smart Tools for the Airbus Factory
Manufacturing and assembly of aircraft, which involves tens of thousands of steps that must be followed by the operators, and a single mistake in the process could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to fix, makes the room for error very small.

Accelerate Production for Spirit AeroSystems
The manufacture and assembly of massive fuselage assemblies and other large structures generates a river of data. In fact, the bill of materials for a single fuselage alone can be millions of rows of data. In-house production processes and testing, as well as other manufacturers and customers created data flows that overwhelmed previous processes and information systems. Spirit’s customer base had grown substantially since their 2005 divestiture from Boeing, resulting in a $41 billion backlog of orders to fill. To address this backlog, meet increased customer demands and minimize additional capital investment, the company needed a way to improve throughput in the existing operational footprint. Spirit had a requirement from customers to increase fuselage production by 30%. To accomplish this goal, Spirit needed real-time information on its value chain and workflow. However, the two terabytes of data being pulled from their SAP ECC was unmanageable and overloaded their business warehouse. It had become time-consuming and difficult to pull aggregate data, disaggregate it for the needed information and then reassemble to create a report. During the 6-8 hours it took to build a report, another work shift (they run three per day) would have already taken place, thus the report content was out-of-date before it was ever delivered. As a result, supervisors often had to rely on manual efforts to provide charts, reports and analysis.
