UBIK is a comprehensive solution for enabling Augmented Reality in industrial environments.

It allows the creation of flexible, high performance object models that are capable of consolidating data from almost any sources, either as a onetime effort, on a frequent basis or just on demand whenever it is needed. These models are exposed to a Web Service and can be subscribed by UBIK mobile devices, which crossfade the objects as bubbles into the camera view, based on their geo-position.

The current UBIK mobile version 1.0 is called Kallisto (following UBIK versions). The UBIK server is called UBIK Studio.

Feature Overview:

Design object-oriented data models with rich functionality

• Use Polymorphism and inheritance at its best
• Define arbitrary Relations between objects
• Program runtime behavior of your objects in native code
• Configure Views to control how users see the objects

Release data model

• Compile object model to native code and relational data
• Navigate through data still object-oriented, but with the integrity and performance of an RDBMS

Interface to data sources

• Leverage Standard interfaces, i.e. ISO15926
• Create Custom interface plugins, to any available source
• Manage Interface behavior and consolidation workflows

Publish data model

• Define Contexts for applications and/or roles
• Link contexts to views
• Interact with mobile devices at the push of a button

Use data in the field

• Aim mobile device on objects and Get information instantly
• Zoom into more detailed information, fast and secure
• Have Access to the full data model published on the server
• Edit data in the field and save it back to the server, thus even to the sources
• Record pictures or voice messages and enrich your data input
• Teach in new objects directly in the field, based on your geo-position
