Augmented reality ‘invades’ packaging and logistics

Augmented reality is ‘invading’ the packaging and logistics world as three new initiatives were announced. DHL Supply Chain is rolling out the next phase of its Vision Picking Program following a successful trial of the augmented reality technology in the Netherlands.
Packaging exhibition All4Pack (14-17 November 2016) hosts a ‘serious game’ presented by a group of packaging machinery manufacturers, offering visitors total immersion in virtual reality to follow the journey of a food product in a packaging line. A unique NVC Inspiration Meeting on 2 December 2016 addresses the potential that Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) bring to the real world of packaging.
