| Objectives | Exploit AI Recognition technology and augmented reality to 1) crowdsource data on SPEN assets and customer devices to update the SPEN asset records, 2) identify 3rd party assets to reduce aborted calls, and 3) offer training, support and guidance to field staff on SPEN assets. Proof of concept – Initial phase of the project is to use AI and camera combination to recognise asset such as a single cutout to prove the technology works in the application3 Use cases – developed following proof of conceptUse case 1 – Asset data collection – App on phone – return asset data Use case 2 – Reduce aborted calls – send customer a link to a URL – Information to users and problem solvingUse case 3 – Field Staff Support – app on phone with AI and AR – information to user and problem solving The objective of this project is to create an app that will iDentify any asset it is trained on, and provide either useful asset data, or problem solving guidance to the user | |
| Abstract | Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Reality in conjunction with mobile Apps have the potential to improve asset management and reduce costs within the networks sector. This project will trial initial use-cases. | |
