Company mission
To accelerate human-centred manufacturing companies through digital transformation.
Our take
The manufacturing sector is familiar with technology-driven upheavals, and the current wave, Industry 4.0, is elevating connectivity, automation, and data utilisation to unprecedented levels. This transformation is spearheaded by cutting-edge technologies such as AI, VR, and AR. KIT-AR joined the space in 2018 with its AR solution for the manufacturing shop floor.
The company works to minimise production errors by providing step-by-step AR instructions to guide workers. Operators can view and engage with these instructions which are superimposed onto shop floor equipment. Alongside this KIT-AR is developing vertical products, focusing on digital and standardised kitting procedures, ensuring error prevention and enhanced productivity insights.
The company looks to be in the forefront of the digital transformation of human-centred manufacturing. This revolution of tech in the space will likely support tackling productivity and labour shortage issues within the sector. Recent funding will allow the company to pursue plans to expand globally and scale its team whilst continuing to drive its mission.
