Remote Assistance Software Company Named “Remote Team Communication Innovation of the Year”
Birmingham, AL — JUNE 25, 2021
Help Lightning, one of the leading providers of remote visual assistance software, today announced the winning of the “Remote Team Communication Innovation of the Year” award in the 2021 RemoteTech Breakthrough Awards. The award program is organized by RemoteTech Breakthrough, a leading independent market intelligence organization that evaluates and recognizes standout technology companies, products and services empowering remote work and distributed teams around the globe.
Help Lightning’s next-generation platform uses augmented reality to virtually place an expert on-site anytime, anywhere. The company’s patented merged reality feature provides a video-based collaborative environment where a person needing help “meets” an expert on a video call. Using merged reality (the merging of two video streams) and 3D annotation, the two parties can communicate in real time, as if they were working side by side. The expert can virtually “reach out and touch” whatever the person needing help is working on. The expert can also use hand gestures and even bring in tools, parts or instructions to quickly resolve problems.
