Dynabook Americas, Inc., Inc. (formerly Toshiba America Client Solutions, Inc.), today announced the availability of Vision DE Suite™ 3.0 with Task Flow capabilities. This new feature includes hands-free task flow, task flow creation, task flow assignment and task flow reporting all designed to improve efficiency, quality and operating flexibility for enterprise customers. The addition of Task Flow capabilities to the Dynabook AR software reinforces the dynaEdge™ AR Smart Glasses as the premiere Windows-based, enterprise-grade AR solution on the market.
Dynabook plans to demonstrate Vision DE Suite 3.0 on its award-winning AR smart glasses at AWE 2019 this week in Santa Clara, Calif.

“We continue to add important features to our Vision DE Suite to create a complete AR Solution designed to improve efficiencies for enterprises with frontline and field workers,” said Phillip Osako, vice president, marketing and engineering, Dynabook Americas, Inc. “The addition of Task Flow capabilities demonstrates our commitment to understanding our customers’ needs in the wearable enterprise marketplace.”

Vision DE Suite 3.0 is a software engine designed to maximize the functionality of the Dynabook innovative AR solution called dynaEdge™ AR Smart Glasses. These smart glasses are a completely wearable AR solution and combine the power of a Windows 10 Pro PC with the robust feature set of industrial-grade smart glasses. Designed for enterprise customers, Dynabook’s dynaEdge AR Smart Glasses packages together the company’s dynaEdge AR100 Head Mounted Display (HMD) with its dynaEdge Mobile Mini PC for a completely wearable PC system maximizing mobility, productivity and security without compromising flexibility.

Dynabook engineered the task flow with hands-free task flow, task flow creation, task flow assignment and task flow reporting capabilities. These features are intuitive, easy-to-use and ideal for industries requiring hands-free, step-by-step instructions, such as maintenance instructions, manufacturing standard operating procedures and training. To develop task flows, the Vision DE Suite 3.0 task flow creator is a simple, drag-and-drop application that allows task flow designers to easily incorporate audio, video, photo and PDFs to create highly detailed instructions and training materials.

Vision DE Suite 3.0 offers fast and easy navigation by grouping device functions into three color-coded menu categories: Communications, File Viewer and Tools. From these three menus users can take photos, record and stream live video, retrieve reference materials, access diagrams and receive text messages. This easy-to-use approach to navigating a robust solution elevates productivity and improves efficiency. In addition, the software suite includes the Dynabook Mobile Management Console which offers IT managers and organizations advanced synchronization and centralized device management capabilities. Vision DE Suite delivers the productivity and efficiency critical to enterprises.

Vision DE Suite 3.0 also delivers the following features Live Video Collaboration Call, Photo Capture, Video Capture, PDF, Photo and Video Viewer, Real-Time File Synchronization, Remote Management Console, Flexible Navigation/Control, Voice Commands and Real-Time Alerts.
