米拉实验室is a smartphone-powered augmented reality system that helps to digitize and document workflows and connect frontline workers through hands-free AR glasses and enterprise-ready software.
“Mira Labs的棱镜耳机是一种企业级可穿戴，允许企业部署增强现实，”Mira Labs的产品设计工程师Haley Harrington说。“MIRA避免了与AR相关的进入的高障碍，包括管理和保护新设备以及禁止的成本。”
Harrington and the entire team at Mira Labs are looking to enable a hands-free world, in which workers can stay aware, while still reporting and documenting information.
The Challenge: Overcoming Slow Production Cycles While Staying Dynamic
Since augmented reality is still in its early phase, solutions can take a long time to test and validate. Along with the inherent issues that come with frontier technology comes a need for dynamic development, in order to take what’s learned and apply that knowledge to new hardware.
“挑战在于生产足够高保真度的硬件，以获得世界上真实人的宝贵反馈。哈灵顿说，它需要工作，并运作良好。“在一个理想的世界中，我们应该能够与客户留下原型，这样我们就可以看到它在日常生活中的样子，因为这为我们提供了最有价值的见解。”
但是，让信息回来并迭代设计是团队的挑战。通过高质量的高分成本获得高分辨率的高分辨率，难以实现。
“这些单位需要快速，相对廉价地生产，而没有对工具的投资，使得设计和工程变化困难且成本高昂，”哈灵顿说。
解决方案：供应链整合和虚构的灵活性
“FICTIV让我们访问了海外MJF打印，使我们能够快速生产成本效益的单位。”
The Mira Labs team leveraged Fictiv’s HP Multi Jet Fusion 3D printing capabilities, with economical overseas production to produce fully functional units at high volume.
“FICTIV让我们访问了海外MJF打印，使我们能够迅速生产成本效益的单位，”哈林顿说。“虚构允许我们以传统上难以管理的体积生产完全职能的单位。”
Harrington says Multi Jet Fusion gives Mira Labs’ product a polished appearance that’s customer-ready, allowing the company to meet its goal to put prototypes in customers’ hands in exchange for product feedback.
“MJF允许我们生产完整的功能单位，具有高质量的外观和感觉，我们能够掌握客户的手中，”Harrington说。“通过这个过程，我们能够获得不断的反馈，并对我们的设计进行重要改进。”
