TAMPA BAY, Fla. , April 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V. Polish Branch, a subsidiary of the worldwide leading manufacturer for electrical and electronic devices Mitsubishi Electric, has entered a partnership with TeamViewer, a leading global provider of secure remote connectivity solutions, to roll out TeamViewer's augmented reality (AR) support solution in its branch offices across Central and Eastern Europe . The AR-based remote support solution from TeamViewer will be particularly used in Mitsubishi's growing business unit of industrial automation covering products such as industrial control systems, drives and robots. In interaction with customers, which include leading manufacturers from the food, aerospace and automotive industries, TeamViewer's AR solution will enhance the support experience and improve repair processes.
The software runs on mobile devices and wearables and can remotely help solve complex problems through a shared video and AR markers.
