Linköping, Sweden—XMReality AB (publ) (NASDAQ First North: XMR), an international leader in AR-enabled knowledge sharing, announces that a partnership agreement has been signed with Semcon, a global leader in the field of digitizing product information and generation of digital content.
Semcon has experienced increased demand for digital content and live interaction from its customers and has invested heavily in AR/VR development to be able to visualize information. The partnership entitles Semcon to market and promote XMReality Remote Guidance and for XMReality to distribute and visualize content from Semcon in XMReality Remote Guidance. This way XMReality’s offering is broadened to encompass a solution where technical digital information and instructions, such as service instructions, can be visualized within the tool, thus empowering users to work smarter.
“We are very happy to start this collaboration with Semcon. Their capabilities to visualize information is a perfect match with our AR-enabled remote guidance tool. The agreement is therefore in line with our strategy to partner with companies that add value to our offering”, says Johan Castevall, CEO XMReality.

AR makes it even easier to support for example service technicians by sharing and visualizing the right information at the right time”, says David Sondén, General Manager Product Information Sweden at Semcon.
