Instead of focusing on the transaction of buying supplies, we zoomed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">The team envisioned property maintenance managers as using augmented reality to diagnose maintenance problems in a unit, image recognition to identify specific parts, and voice recognition to be able to place orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-option-default\">Through this process, we worked to identify the first-phase solutions that could be developed and launched with relative ease and speed. Because technicians themselves had limited access to technology, the best way to start was to make the storeroom smart. So we worked with the company to create a beta test of an app that would run on an iPad located in the storerooms.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large has-option-mb40\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/metal-pipes-plumbing-372796-2048x1536-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/metal-pipes-plumbing-372796-2048x1536-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/metal-pipes-plumbing-372796-2048x1536-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/metal-pipes-plumbing-372796-2048x1536-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/metal-pipes-plumbing-372796-2048x1536-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/metal-pipes-plumbing-372796-2048x1536-1-497x373.jpg 497w, https:\/\/digitalscientists.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/metal-pipes-plumbing-372796-2048x1536-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<!-- Block Settings -->\n\n<!-- Load values and handle defaults. -->\n\n    <style>\n        #spacer-new-block_63d792eb35e45 {\n            height: 160px;\n        }\n\n        @media(max-width: 782px) {\n            #spacer-new-block_63d792eb35e45 {\n                height: 109px;\n            }\n        }\n\n        @media(max-width: 560px) {\n            #spacer-new-block_63d792eb35e45 {\n                height: 60px;\n            }\n        }\n    <\/style>\n    <div id=\"spacer-new-block_63d792eb35e45\" class=\" guttenberg-block spacer-new alignfull\"\n         style=\"background-color: #ffffff;
