Augmented Reality in Data Centre Commissioning
The pace of data centre infrastructure and IT development is matching the technological developments in the industry and society as a whole. The use of augmented reality (AR) allows clients to keep pace with these advancements, while improving time and cost efficiencies and data accuracy in construction and commissioning projects.
The benefits of these technologies, if implemented at design review and cx-ability review stages, carry through and positively compound right through all stages of the project life cycle and beyond.
Practically speaking, AR on a site walk can quickly and easily identify issues. For Set In Place inspections, AR efficiently confirms that the right equipment is in the right place. At Teckel Group, we use AR to improve accuracy and timelines. Asset information can be viewed through wearable tech (i.e. a VR headset). In real time, we can match and confirm that the asset information is up to date and matches the information on the physical tags, avoiding compatibility and installation errors.
AR brings asset management to the next level.
New Technology, Improved Benefits
Compared with traditional technologies and practices, AR reduces man-hours, improves accuracy and prevents damage to infrastructure by taking a “hands-off” approach to inspections. For long-term management of the facilities, AR significantly reduces the cost of asset management requiring less site visits and better oversight for clients.
We can guide you through the benefits of 3D scanning, Virtual Assistance, Video Analytics, equipment augmentation and wearable tech. The heightened benefits come from the use of some, if not all, of these tools being used in conjunction with one another.
At Teckel Group, our experience of a wide range of AR in different mission critical data centres, makes us ideal partners to identify the best technology to implement for long-term infrastructure, labour and cost savings.
Most importantly, we can identify and implement the best AR solution(s) for your specific commissioning project, tailoring the solution to your specific needs, budget and timeframe.
