Mira Labs

Mira Labs is a mobile augmented reality company that works to enhance the way users interact with technology and each other in the workplace. The company offers industrial-grade wearables and hands-free software technologies, allowing for the simple authoring of workflows and procedures; documents and industrial workflows are standardized while connecting teams. These technologies are intended to enhance safety and oversight in industrial environments, such as in manufacturing chemical explosives and maintenance of military equipment.

Mira Labs was founded in 2016 by Benjamin Taft, Joseph May, Matt Stern, and Montana Reed and is headquartered in Los Angeles, California.

Mira's augmented reality headset, Prism, is safety rated, compatible with PPE, and powered by a smartphone. Because it uses a smartphone, the headset is more affordable and faster to deploy than other augmented reality headsets. The AR headset works with Mira's Connect and Flow software. The headset allows a user to insert their smartphone and projects the necessary information on a see-through glass display, allowing users to see the real world and the necessary information. And the hands-free display allows users to interface through their gaze.

Mira Connect is a software for allowing remote subject-matter experts to view what a worker is viewing in real time and from anywhere. This allows experts to be on-site virtually, when being on-site physically is impossible or difficult. It can further help keep frontline workers safe and allows experts to guide them through their work and processes, enabling an instant transfer of knowledge.

Furthermore, in a case in which users cannot necessarily understand what is being explained, or if they need further context, the software enables experts or users to send documents through a normal messaging service and allows the wearer to switch between contexts to better see what an expert is talking about. The company suggests this can decrease time to resolution and drive process improvements through insights during sessions.

Mira's Flow software is a no-code workflow authoring tool to allow organizations to digitize hands-on processes, which can allow organizations to increase the accuracy of their processes and eliminate downtime. The software allows users wearing the company's AR headset or using a tablet to receive task guidance from checklists and remote supervisors.

For organizations using the Flow software, it also offers insights into operators and related metrics to develop information around process improvements, predictive maintenance, digital audits, and further build confidence in frontline workers.
