As one element of remote working, many companies have accelerated to adapt the use of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) to ensure business continuity and in order to supplement the impossibility or extreme complication for technical teams to travel in different global sites for installation of new production lines, upgrade of existing lines, or carrying out maintenance and assistance during the pandemic.
