Streamlining operations and empowering workers with DigiLens ARGO™ and Google’s Gemini models through the power of artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR)

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — DigiLens Inc., a leading nanotechnology innovator in waveguide display technologies and XR smartglasses, announces ARGO™, one of the first all-in-one true AR smartglasses, is powered by Google’s Gemini models. Leveraging Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and built on the advanced Qualcomm Snapdragon™ XR2 Platform, ARGO™ integrated with Google’s Gemini models is set to redefine the future of work by seamlessly integrating cutting-edge AR and AI technology into daily operations for enterprise and lite-industrial workers.

A cornerstone of ARGO™’s innovation is its integration with sophisticated AI agents. These AI assistants are designed to quickly process multimodal information, reason about the context, and respond to queries at a conversational pace. Google’s Gemini models combine multiple forms of data and context, enabling it to understand and generate conversational text with remarkable accuracy and relevance. This makes it an ideal companion for ARGO™, as it ensures that users receive precise and contextually appropriate information in real time, enhancing the user experience and operational efficiency.

Natural User Interactions on ARGO™ with AI

In the evolving AR/XR wearables landscape, the need for natural user interaction is paramount. Unlike traditional devices with touchscreens and keyboards, ARGO™ leverages advanced voice interaction capabilities powered by Gemini models to make the user experience as intuitive and intelligent as possible. Instead of using predefined voice commands, ARGO™ can respond to a wide range of conversational languages. This shift in interaction methods is critical for enhancing productivity and engagement in various use cases.

Spatial Perception and Awareness

The AI-enabled ARGO™ uses flexible, natural language models from Google’s Gemini models, along with its integrated array of sensors — such as spatial camera, full IMU, integrated GNSS radio, and microphones — to become spatially aware of each task at hand. Along with giving each user command and control capability, the AI-powered ARGO™ device uses its “senses” to become acutely aware of the operator’s surroundings, intent, and work. This enables relevant instructions or tasks to be AR overlayed right into the reality of the work via holographically augmented objects on top of real-world images. This fusion of AR and AI on DigiLens ARGO™ smartglasses powered by Google Cloud’s AI capabilities will enhance things like navigation aids, retail experiences, work manuals, and even specialized tasks such as surgical procedures. Through AR, operators can even access visual representations of AI-driven analyses and insights of their real-world environment, making complex data more accessible and understandable.      

“Today’s workers demand modern, people-first tools that help them perform at their optimal level. ARGO™ and Google Cloud meet that demand and provide a platform for the deployment and optimization of responsible AI integration into the workplace,” says Nima Shams, DigiLens GM & VP of Product. “DigiLens and Google Cloud joining forces will help workers become significantly more productive, collaborative, and creative. Google Cloud’s AI and DigiLens’ AR platforms will revolutionize how work will be done.”

“Generative AI is fundamentally changing how many businesses operate, fueling a new era of growth that can benefit virtually every area of an organization,” said Christoph Wertz, Head of Customer Engineering for Western States and Silicon Valley at Google Cloud. “By utilizing Google Cloud’s leading GenAI capabilities, DigiLens can help customers unlock new insights that help them improve operations and be more productive.”

As the world’s first true AR- and AI-powered smartglasses, DigiLens’ ARGO™ remains at the forefront of technological advancements, continually improving the user experience. Through AI innovation, DigiLens in collaboration with Google Cloud empowers sustained efficiency and productivity enhancements for workers.

DigiLens will demonstrate ARGO’s™ new gen AI capabilities during the Augmented World Expo on June 18-20 in Long Beach, California. Stop by Booth 427 to see a demo.

Dynamic Pricing Raises New Questions for Forwarders Evaluating Automated Freight Quoting

Published

on

By

As freight forwarders adopt AI freight quoting software, Aircon founder Chris Condon says buyers should measure more than response speed. He urges teams evaluating freight quote automation software to count total operator time, including review and correction, and to check how quotes hold up when shipment details change.

LEWISVILLE, Texas, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — As more freight forwarders adopt AI freight quoting software to keep pace with shifting rates, a practical question is emerging: how much of the time saved is later spent checking and fixing what the software produces? Chris Condon, founder and CEO of Aircon, says buyers evaluating freight quote automation software should look at dynamic pricing alongside the work required to turn a supplier’s rate into a customer commitment. His comments follow G2’s 2026 AI Agents Report, updated October 14, which examines the operating costs of reviewing and correcting automated work.

“A higher rate can still be the right choice if it supports the required service,” Condon said. “What matters is knowing what the price includes, which conditions apply and what still has to be confirmed before the customer relies on the answer.”

“Think about a hotel when a major concert comes to town,” Condon said. “Demand goes up, there are only so many rooms, and prices can rise. Freight responds to supply and demand too. The forwarder’s job is to work out whether the available price and service meet the customer’s need.”

Freight pricing reflects more than demand. Costs, contract terms, and shipment requirements all shape the final number. A changing rate tells the forwarder something about one particular option… building a customer offer still requires checking service conditions, outstanding confirmations, and the forwarder’s own commercial rules.

That verification step is where automated freight quoting is put to the test. Condon refers to it as decision assurance: organizing the inputs and evidence behind a proposed commitment, flagging open questions, and keeping a record of the decision, while the forwarder retains judgment and the customer relationship.

“A higher rate can still be the right choice if it supports the required service,” Condon said. “What matters is knowing what the price includes, which conditions apply and what still has to be confirmed before the customer relies on the answer.”

G2’s report draws on a July survey of 1,019 business technology decisionmakers across industries. Forty-five percent of respondents said oversight and rework consume more than a quarter of their expected productivity gains. The findings are self-reported and cover enterprise AI adoption broadly; the report is not specific to freight.

For teams comparing freight quoting software for forwarders, Condon suggests looking beyond response speed. He recommends measuring total operator time, including review and correction, and asking how any freight quote management software handles changes to shipment details…and whether a second operator can understand the conditions behind an earlier quote.

“The practical standard is to give the team time back and keep the judgment behind the customer commitment clear,” Condon said.

About Aircon:

Aircon provides decision-assurance software for freight forwarders, supporting the review that takes place before a quote becomes a customer commitment. It preserves inputs, evidence, and decision state within the forwarder’s existing workflow, while the forwarder retains the customer relationship and commercial judgment.

DataLogix AI Launches Workplace Video Resources for Businesses Exploring AI and Robotics Training

Published

New calculator, business owner guide and inquiry form help companies assess workplace video alongside existing business records.

UNION, N.J., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — DataLogix AI, a division of Trailblaze Solutions LLC, has launched online resources to help business owners explore first-person workplace video for AI and robotics training. The new resources include a workplace-video overview, an adjustable revenue calculator, a business owner guide and an inquiry form for discussing potential fit.

The launch adds a second starting point alongside DataLogix AI’s existing focus on licensing business records. Owners can compare written operating history, such as internal email, chat, tickets and project records, with newly recorded footage showing the hands, tools and steps involved in approved physical tasks. Businesses with both types of activity can explore each separately.

The workplace-video resources describe possible tasks in areas including warehousing, maintenance, construction, production and vehicle service. These examples are discussion starting points, not confirmed eligible categories. The guidance asks owners to review participant consent, recording permissions, safety, equipment and footage acceptance criteria before beginning.

The calculator models a four-week scenario using the number of participating workers, accepted recording hours per worker and an assumed payment rate. Owners can optionally enter employee compensation and other business costs. All figures are illustrative. The calculator does not establish an offered rate, forecast earnings or determine eligibility, and a result after entered deductions is not net profit.

The accompanying guide explains how the two opportunities differ in preparation, rights and economics. It includes questions about who may approve participation, what can be recorded or licensed, who may receive the material and how payment would be determined. Owners can review the resources without uploading company records or workplace footage.

Businesses interested in learning more can use the inquiry form to describe their company and the opportunity they would like to discuss. An inquiry is not enrollment, recording permission or a payment offer. Program availability, equipment and commercial terms require separate confirmation, and payment may be zero.
