Scope AR Showcases Augmented Reality’s Impact at Qualcomm’s 40th Anniversary Celebration in Washington, D.C.

Scope AR was honored to join industry leaders, government representatives, and technology pioneers at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History to celebrate Qualcomm’s 40th anniversary. The event brought together key decision-makers, including members of Congress and their chiefs of staff, to discuss the future of advanced manufacturing, aerospace, and defense.

As global industries prioritize workforce training and upskilling, Augmented Reality (AR) is emerging as a transformative tool in manufacturing and Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO). Scope AR had the opportunity to introduce government officials to cutting-edge AR technology and demonstrate how it is already driving significant productivity gains in aerospace manufacturing.

Qualcomm’s leadership in semiconductor innovation continues to power the expansion of AR. With their advanced chipsets at the core of many AR headsets and Android devices, Qualcomm is playing a critical role in accelerating the adoption of immersive technology across industries.

"We’re at a pivotal moment where AR is reshaping workforce training and operational efficiency, particularly in aerospace and defense," said Scott Montgomerie, CEO at Scope AR. "It was a pleasure to showcase the real-world impact of AR to key policymakers and industry stakeholders."

Exciting announcements on the horizon—stay tuned for more updates!

Scope AR extends its gratitude to Qualcomm’s Liam Dow and Ali Zamiri for the invitation and their commitment to driving innovation in the AR ecosystem.
