Although the Ford Motor Company is still using clay models for designing prototypes of its future cars, the company does not shy away in embracing newer tech. Ford is now using augmented reality in part by way of Microsoft's HoloLens. The partnership is being billed as another helpful tool in the collaborative process of building an automobile.
Check out the demonstration.
Using HoloLens to visualize full scale models in 3D, Ford design and engineering teams are able to iterate more quickly -- processes that used to take weeks now take days because they no longer need to physically build every prototype. They can more easily and securely share ideas across the company, and consider many more concepts than previously possible.
