Prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the company asked specialists at its Sao José dos Pinhais plant to make weekly 1,500-mile trips to the Camaari plant to monitor the progression of the test product or initial production. Trips have been interrupted to ensure worker safety, but the need for follow-up remains. Through the use of Vuzix M400 smart lenses at the Camacari plant, product remote progression specialists can identify direct connections with plant operators, who obtain trained audio and video to help production, without affecting production productivity, as workers’ hands remain free. At the same time, specialist productivity is also expanding due to travel time relief as well as significant relief in their carbon footprint.
“Vuzix M400 wise glasses are one of the many tactics we have discovered in Grupo Botic-rio to continue producing with quality, preserving the protection of our workers and serving the wishes of all population profiles,” said Paulo Roseiro, Director of Research. development at Boticio Group.
