Grant: CCI Applied Research and Development Grants
Sheridan College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning
$40,000.00
Augmented Reality Simulation of Solar Blind Control
FY 2023-24
Summary
Sheridan College’s Screen Industries Research and Training Centre (SIRT) will work with Toronto-based partner Morgan Solar Inc. to prototype an augmented reality (AR) mobile application. The application will allow for Morgan Solar technicians to be able to easily view and display a virtual duplicate of their green-energy product line. The application will assist in both the process for installing of solar blinds, as well as provide a demonstration of equipment usage for clients. With this application, Morgan Solar will be able to improve equipment commissioning workflows, and increase their number of customers.
