Hi all, hope I'm asking this correctly.

Does anyone know of any companies or services that will important, format, and display information for augmented reality for use in repair and maintenance of equipment.

I'm a big believer that the killer app in augmented reality is the ability to look at a complex machine, have the system identify components using image recognition, and the allow the user to pull up repair info, troubleshooting info, reorder info. I'm sure big companies like Ford and GE will make their own AR databases in house. But are their services for smaller companies who don't need full time AR teams? Are their tools that assist in the creation of the databases?

My first thought was companies like PTC and Autodesk, but I wasn't sure.

For reference, I'm a mechanical engineer, long history of design, big believer in AR, but also pretty sure I need to learn more.

Thanks, and I can't wait to hear your thoughts.
