Whether for tele-engineering, design collaboration, co-debugging, inner layer visualization, instant component lookup or net searching on a PCBA at any stage of manufacturing or test, inspectAR helps hardware teams interact efficiently.
PCB as a Live Interactive Board: Easily interact with a board in the real world by selecting components within the inspectAR tool. Hover over a component to display its reference designator. Click a component and view the design-specific pinout natively. If you flip the board over, all the overlays that you are looking at will be reversed and mirrored to match the design.
Testing, Debugging, and Reworking Industry trends have caused a reactionary bottleneck in testing, debugging, and reworking when hardware products are manufactured; both in prototype and mass-manufacturing scenarios. The PCB design industry has been unable to pivot towards this trend due to the inability of current tools to interpret a physical object with the same accuracy that a human would. The inspectAR tool overcomes this barrier by using a camera and some EDA manufacturing outputs. (AR glasses neither required nor supported). Now, with just a few clicks on a component, you get a datasheet, supplier information and a design-specific pinout.
Key Features:
Easy-to-Use AR Technology - The inspectAR tool uses off-the-shelf devices with a hybrid of in-house and custom AR technology, allowing you to directly interact with a board in the real world.
Any PCB Shape - The inspectAR tool works with simple rectangles, circular boards, irregular shapes with internal cutouts, and custom profiles made to fit form-factor cases.
Simple Calibration Process - The inspectAR tool uses the board outline to calculate the approximate location of your AR overlays and compute the location the board in real-time.
Team Collaboration - Collatorate easily on designs with tools that eliminate common communication mishaps.
Topology-Based Menu - Every overlay in the inspectAR tool understands its topology in relation to others.
Documentation Tool - The inspectAR tool automatically documents the PCB design.
