Taqtile introduced Manifest 3.0, to optimize scalability, accountability, and regulatory compliance
XR TODAY — Today, Taqtile introduced Manifest 3.0, a frontline augmented reality work solution that displays immersive instructional assets. Manifest version 3.0 provides notable updates which aim to optimize the platform’s scalability, accountability, and regulatory compliance.
John Tomizuka, the CTO of Taqtile, added:
“
Taqtile Manifest 3.0 will enable companies to expand the use of our platform across their entire corporate footprint while maintaining the highest levels of compliance, traceability, and accountability. By delivering exceptional management and compliance tools, enterprises in highly regulated industries can confidently expand Manifest usage throughout their organizations.
Taqtile is introducing improved Manifest Editorial and Publishing tools to improve enterprise users’ ability to leverage spatial information, such as digital twins and detailed holograms.
Moreover, the new update includes annotation tracking, improved template authorization tools, optimized instructional asset distribution, new instructional creation workflows, and refined UI for more straightforward navigation.
Clients can access the new update via its “increasing” end-device ecosystem that covers MR headsets to smartphones. Moreover, the platform is a browser-based experience, considerably opening the service’s integrability.
Taqtile Deepen Microsoft Partnership
Last month at the Mobile World Congress held in Barcelona, Spain, Taqtile, a leading provider of AR instructional solutions, demonstrated its enhanced support of Microsoft services to improve the usability of its immersive solution in challenging industrial environments.
With this support, Taqtile’s solution, Manifest, can now integrate Azure Private 5G Core into the AR instructional platform. This integration will enable Taqtile workers to use Manifest on HoloLens 2 headsets effectively.
Moreover, Azure support helps keep workers better connected through more robust connectivity features suitable for industrial environments and use cases.
John Mathieu, the Managing Director of Taqtile Europe, added:
“
Our HoloLens customers will significantly benefit through our ongoing support of the Azure platform and the Microsoft Azure Private 5G Core implementation. By increasing availability through deployment of Azure at the edge, Manifest better supports the needs endemic to our industrial users.
The firm notes that a core benefit of integrating the Azure 5G infrastructure into its solution means that users can more easily access, edit, and collaborate over digital twin content, an increasing driver of XR usage in the enterprise.
Taqtile also officially announced its support for Microsoft’s Unity-based MRTK3 to expand its Manifest application’s functionality earlier this year. The aim is to prepare for a growing number of OpenXR devices in 2024.
By supporting MRTK3, Taqtile aims to enhance the application by incorporating interoperable gesture recognition, enabling rapid prototyping, swapping core AR/VR components based on the hardware, and supporting a more comprehensive range of MR devices.
The latest features of MRTK3, introduced by Microsoft, include UI enhancements, volumetric buttons, and object manipulation, enhancing Taqtile’s Manifest AR application.
Taqtile has a history of supporting Microsoft’s digital solution portfolio to improve its Manifest product. In 2022, the company began to support Azure to enhance the streaming of RT3D content to workers on-site.
