Industry has a dashboard obsession. A beautiful screen, full of charts, sitting in a room far from the machine. But the person doing the maintenance is right there, hands on the machine, and isn't going to stop to open a report.
That's why I bet on hardware at the point of work. The broco Glass is a pair of augmented-reality glasses that overlays the machine's data directly onto the machine itself, with step-by-step instructions right in front of the technician's eyes, connected to the IoT sensors and to management. The technician sees what they need, where they need it, and the inspection history logs itself.
And there are real factory-floor numbers behind this. Boeing reported roughly 25% less assembly time and up to 40% fewer errors using augmented-reality glasses to guide wiring, and aerospace suppliers cut inspection time with the same idea. Information at the point of work isn't a gadget, it turns into measured productivity.
It's the same thesis behind the Broco PC and BrocoEngine: AI and data close to the operation, in-house, not in a distant cloud. Technology has to reach the exact point where the work happens, otherwise it's just decoration.
