HyperTunnel provides a mixed reality workflow platform that connects remote subject matter experts with frontline workers using persistent, synchronized digital twins of worksites. The platform facilitates synchronous remote assistance and asynchronous spatial messaging, enabling high-fidelity collaboration across physical and digital environments. It also incorporates augmented intelligence via computer vision to provide on-demand procedural guidance and supervision to field personnel.

Problem
Organizations face challenges in providing timely expert guidance and support to frontline workers in remote or complex environments. The cost and logistical difficulties of dispatching experts to physical worksites, coupled with workforce turnover, can lead to delays, increased costs, and inconsistent knowledge transfer. Traditional 2D remote collaboration tools often lack the spatial context needed to effectively address intricate, three-dimensional problems.
Solution
HyperTunnel offers a mixed reality platform that creates persistent, synchronized digital twins of remote worksites, enabling synchronous and asynchronous collaboration between frontline workers and remote experts. Using devices like iPhones or iPads, field teams can generate 3D digital twins of worksites. Experts can then join the digital twin in VR to gain situational awareness and provide actionable guidance through real-time HyperCall sessions or asynchronous HyperNote messaging with spatial annotations. The platform facilitates remote assistance, knowledge sharing, and immersive simulations, allowing experts to virtually "teleport" to the site and interact as if they were physically present.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes enterprises in industries such as defense, aviation, manufacturing, and utilities that require remote expert support, training, and collaboration for frontline workers in complex and remote environments.
