Towards Industry 5.0: How Converged Experiences Empower the Smart, Connected Worker

by Martin Cookson | Jun 28, 2024

Unlocking Industry 5.0 hinges on the orchestration of humans and machines to drive productivity and value. Central to this is the smart, connected worker: a workforce empowered by immersive digital experiences that will revolutionise the way they perceive and interact with their environment.

CC’s vision to achieving this future is through an exciting field we’ve termed “converged experiences.” Converged experiences aim to align the physical and digital worlds through extended reality (XR) multiple sensory techniques, such as 3D vision, voice and haptics, allowing users to interact with the physical world with valuable insights displayed through a digital overlay. As we move towards Industry 5.0, investing in these services will empower users in complex environments, such as for industrial applications, reducing cognitive load, enabling more intricate procedures while boosting your team’s wellbeing.

In this whitepaper, we will:

  • Explore the value and business opportunities that come from using converged experiences to unlock Industry 5.0.
  • Reveal how converged experiences can bridge the gap between the digital and physical worlds in your business to unlock previously unseen insights and opportunities.
  • Discover how to get started on your converged experiences journey with a review of high value application areas and enablers.

This paper will act as your essential guide to integrating converged experiences into your business and elevating your workforce in a way that is only possible when people and machines work harmoniously together. This will streamline operations for your business to address the fundamental requirements of modern industry – from increased autonomy to achieving net zero emission targets and modernising national infrastructures.
