Strong partners help shaping the "Digital Workplace
"Anyline is one of five 'Leading Edge' Partners that present their solutions for today’s challenges. The start-up has developed a dynamic text recognition technology: The Anyline Mobile OCR SDK enables developers to define individually what information should be digitised via the camera and further embedded in the corresponding smartphone.
720° helps enterprises by providing them with healthy and productive working environments through monitoring and analytics technology. At the Pioneers Festival, the company will demonstrate data-driven optimisation of workplaces through its monitoring and analytics solution.
By developing the Smart Business Platform Simplifier, iTiZZiMO sets a new standard in building software applications for the Industrial Internet of Things. At the Pioneers Festival, iTiZZiMO will demonstrate how to support maintenance tasks by providing information out of connected software systems. The demo will be presented on a tablet as well as on a smart glass.
NavVis develops innovative and highly accurate indoor mapping and navigation technologies. For example, users can take a virtual walk through a photorealistic model of the Deutsches Museum in Munich at the booth tour.
Furthermore, Asset Mapping will be present at the Konica Minolta booth. The start-up uses Internet of Things technologies to show the real time location and status of assets on a digital map. When certain conditions change, Asset Mapping sends alerts to operators so they can address issues faster and at a lower cost for the organisation.
