Hands-Free Voice-Directed Inspection and Reporting System (VDIRS)

á The Hands-Free Voice-Directed Inspection and Reporting System (VDIRS) is a system that utilizes Cobalt's Virtual Maintenance and Testing Assistant (VMTA) to enable inspectors and maintenance technicians to complete their tasks more efficiently. With VDIRS, technicians can use their voice with automatic transcription to take notes, fill in forms, and document discrepancies during inspection activities. This eliminates the need for pen and paper with transcription in the office at the end of a shift. They can also use an optional AR headset to take pictures or short videos to supplement the documentation and data. The VDIRS management console enables technicians to collect analytics that measure the system's effectiveness. VDIRS's hands-free capability and natural language interaction can enhance technicians' productivity, reduce errors, improve safety, and shorten training time by eliminating manual data entry and look-up time on laptops, handheld devices, or paper forms.
