Northeast collaboration & cyber security expert, CommuniCloud has added RealWear HMT-1, the world's most powerful wearable computer to its portfolio.
RealWear HMT-1 is the world’s first hands-free
Android tablet class wearable computer. The
technology is proven to increase productivity
whilst enhancing safety. The innovative wearable
technology is the latest offer from CommuniCloud,
which boasts significant experience in cloud, hybrid,
and on-premise business solutions.
What differentiates the RealWear headset
is its range of hands-free functionality and
seamless integration to a wide audience of Video
Conferencing platforms meaning the user can give
a “user’s eye view” of what the engineer or field
worker is seeing. Originally designed for industrial
workers, the use cases are endless, from remote
diagnostics, remote worker training, practical
teaching etc.
A fully rugged head-mounted device, the HMT-1
snaps into safety helmets or attaches to bump caps
and can be used with safety glasses or corrective
eyewear. The high-resolution micro display fits just
below the wearer’s line of sight, providing a view
equivalent to a 7” tablet.
Noel Miland, CommuniCloud Country Manager,
UK and Ireland explains why the technology will
be especially beneficial for Northeast businesses,
“For off-shore, manufacturing and automotive
sectors, for example, wearable technology can
be a complete game changer. When workers are
in potentially hazardous industrial situations, it
means no more scrolling, swiping or tapping –
they have full hands-free voice control. They can
therefore concentrate solely on their key tasks
rather than grappling with hand-held technology
whilst collaborating easily with colleagues who can
see in detailed High Definition what the wearer is
seeing”.
This type of wearable technology brings obvious
safety benefits but has also been shown to improve
productivity. Allowing staff to maintain their focus
on the task in hand, means less time wasted on
non-productive activities.
For CommuniCloud, the RealWear HMT-1 is just
the latest addition to their portfolio. Noel explains,
“We are, at our core, a collaboration & cyber
security business – the differentiation we deliver
in bringing this product into our portfolio is how
we will deploy the underpinning infrastructure
and ensure the environment in which it operates
is fully secure. The expertise we have developed
in providing services to government, healthcare,
finance, ICT and education, means we are wellplaced to support northeast businesses to adopt
this and other technology solutions with full
confidence in its end-to-end integrity”.
CommuniCloud’s global headquarters is located
in New South Wales, Australia. It opened its UK
and Ireland office in April 2020 and has gone from
strength to strength delivering key communications
tools to the health sector to support their fight
against the global pandemic. Communicloud has
a track record of partnering with best of breed
providers of collaboration and security services
such as BT, Cisco, Poly, Ava Networks and the
introduction of RealWear into the portfolio
compliments an already impressive stable of
products from the world’s leading providers.
