The industrial landscape, including the automotive sector, is constantly striving for transformation in alignment with the principles of Industry 4.0 and broader digital transformation objectives. While numerous research papers elaborate on these concepts, they often do so in abstract terms, resulting in a notable gap between theory and actual implementation. Mixed reality tools, especially smart glasses, emerge as powerful catalysts for bridging this gap, primed to play a pivotal role in propelling industries towards the realization of Industry 4.0 and the evolution of smart factories. This paper delves into the potential applications of these advanced mixed reality tools within the industrial setting. By presenting specific use cases substantiated by proofs of concept, it offers tangible solutions poised for commercial deployment. The paper will further spotlight areas of practical application in production, logistics, and quality assurance, illuminating the path for genuine industrial transformation.
