[{"type":"text","content":"DÜSSELDORF, Germany, Nov. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) announced today that it is now taking orders for the Trimble® XR10 with HoloLens 2 system, a worksite-ready mixed-reality solution that enables workers to visualize 3D data on project sites for easier and more efficient planning, collaboration and reporting.\nThe announcement was made at A+A 2019, the largest international trade forum for safety, security and health at work.\nThe new solution is enabled by two central components:\nTrimble XR10 with HoloLens 2 - a mixed-reality device purpose-built for integration into an industry-standard hardhat for use in safety-controlled environments Trimble Connect™ for HoloLens - cloud-based software that allows for open and collaborative communication across all stakeholder types, optimized to maximize the benefits of HoloLens 2Enabling front-line workers in the construction, oil and gas, manufacturing and mining industries, the Trimble XR10 meets international certification standards for impact and electrical protection in most major markets. The device includes all of the new functionality of HoloLens 2, including a flip-up-visor, wider field-of-view and more instinctual interaction enabled by state-of-the-art hand-tracking technology. Providing a true mixed-reality experience, the XR10 enables users to overlay Constructible Building Information Models (BIM) and other digital project data onto the physical context of the jobsite. Trimble has taken this approach one step further by incorporating Mobilus' mobiWAN bone conduction audio headset for a fully immersive experience in the field. The XR10's ear-free approach of the Mobilus device delivers a layer of digital audio content directly to the inner ear while leaving the ears free to receive audio from the physical world or to be protected by earplugs. With mobiWAN audio output and the HoloLens' advanced array of microphones, the system is capable of two-way communications and video remote assistance in high-ambient noise environments. The XR10 introduces all of these advanced features to front-line workers without compromising on safety or compatibility with standard safety glasses, hearing protection, gloves, or other personal protective equipment (PPE).\nTrimble Connect for HoloLens is an application-specific extension to Trimble Connect, a cloud-based collabora...
