In this video case study, an M1 Abrams tank expert mechanic demonstrates the power of rapid authoring using Taqtile Manifest.
While the video highlights the hands-free capabilities of the Microsoft HoloLens 2, the core value of Manifest is its ability to capture tribal knowledge instantly—whether you are using a headset, an iPad, or a standard mobile tablet.
Why Modern Teams Choose Manifest for Authoring: Traditional SOPs take weeks to write and approve. Manifest allows subject matter experts to digitize procedures in real-time.
Capture on the Job: Record steps, take photos, and dictate notes while performing the actual task.
Device Agnostic: Start authoring on a tablet to capture the basics, then layer in spatial markers with a headset later if needed.
Multimedia Rich: Replace confusing text manuals with video, audio, and augmented reality overlays that new hires actually understand.
The Result: Better Data, Faster Training Using Manifest, operators and maintainers can follow these digital work instructions to perform inspections or complete complex tasks with zero prior experience. By digitizing this knowledge, you reduce errors and bridge the skills gap immediately.
Digitizing Defense & Industrial Operations Digital modernization is a key strategy for defense forces and industrial leaders around the world. As weapons, systems, vehicles, and manufacturing operations continue to increase in complexity, digitizing knowledge is critical for an effective, adaptive, and resilient force.
Manifest enables this transformation by moving your team away from static paper manuals and into a dynamic, digital knowledge base.
