A modern laboratory information management system (LIMS) integrated with a mixed reality software solution allows laboratories to digitize their lab processes via mixed reality, freeing lab technicians from paper notes and laptops to manage workflows more efficiently and reduce errors.

LabVantage Solutions’ (Somerset, NJ, USA) LIMS solution integrated with Holo4Labs’ (H4L, Białystok, Poland) mixed reality software solution will leverage virtual reality Microsoft HoloLens 2 goggles that allow laboratory technicians to see hologram overlays that guide them through their experiments and analysis - from identifying and managing reagents and finding the correct location of samples to identifying instruments that require calibration before running an experiment and/or analysis. This ensures each step is conducted efficiently and within specification. The resulting mixed reality laboratory environment allows hands-free execution of procedures for higher productivity and compliance.

“Today’s announcement is an important step in our drive toward the digital laboratory of the future. Our relationship with Holo4Labs, and their support of laboratories, fits perfectly with our approach to the paperless digital laboratory and fully embracing Lab 4.0 technologies,” said Mikael Hagstroem, CEO at LabVantage Solutions. “By joining forces in development, sales, and integration of common solutions, we create a unique offering that allows our customers to use advanced LIMS solutions supported by mixed reality technology.”
