Hodei Technology Partners with Vuzix to Support Its New Klabra Remote Support Platform
Klabra is positioned for use by companies to more effectively provide remote customer support, coaching, troubleshooting, work oversight or training
Vuzix® Corporation (NASDAQ: VUZI), ("Vuzix" or, the "Company"), a leading supplier of Smart Glasses and Augmented Reality (AR) technology and products, today announced that it has received and shipped against an initial volume purchase order from Hodei Technology, an Indiana-based developer and seller of secure, enterprise collaboration solutions designed for a global, connected, and remote workforce, to support the company's newly launched Klabra platform.
The partnership struck with Vuzix provides broader customer access to Hodei's Remote Support Platform called Klabra, a proprietary secure web platform that will seamlessly integrate Vuzix M400, M4000 and Blade 2 smart glasses to offer an innovative, collaborative WebRTC solution. This platform is positioned for use by companies to more effectively provide remote customer support, coaching, troubleshooting, work oversight or training.
Hodei customers will now be able to go to one place to purchase their Vuzix smart glasses and have the Klabra Remote Support App pre-loaded. Klabra is a subscription-based solution that is easy to use, easy to deploy and, with an open API architecture, easy to integrate and scale, offering OEMs, field service organizations, construction companies, and healthcare systems the flexibility and customization desired.
Klabra's intuitive interface provides multiple participants a unique real-time first-person point of view from the smart glasses wearer. The Vuzix uwebrtcser simply logs into Klabra.com, scans a designated QR Code with the smart glasses and joins the session live, enabling everyone in the meeting to see everything they see while working hands-free. Session participants talk to and freely share information with the remote smart glass user.
"We see our relationship with Vuzix as another important piece in our mission to develop and deploy the best-in-class hardware with our Klabra solutions, which are tailored for the emerging "Connected Worker" Industry 5.0 environment. The team at Vuzix has been great in their partnership efforts with Hodei and we look forward to that continuing to strengthen and grow over time," stated Guy Mascaro, CEO and President of Hodei Technology.
"We are excited to be partnering with Hodei Technology and supporting its Klabra platform, a robust enterprise solution that is ideally suited to work with Vuzix smart glasses," said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix. "We look forward to supporting their efforts to help their expanding list of customers improve productivity and gain competitive advantages within their respective industry verticals."
