Recently recognized by the World Economic Forum as a 2016 Technology Pioneer for its trailblazing work to empower the connected workforce, APX Labs delivers solutions that drive significant business value by unlocking the power of the industrial workforce. As a Vuzix VIP, APX Labs has received early access to the new Vuzix M300 Smart Glasses to begin showcasing its leading edge capabilities to customers. This follows the launch earlier this year of Vuzix' Future Proof offer with APX Labs, which allows customers to begin deployments with APX's Skylight and Vuzix M100 Smart Glasses and upgrade to the next generation Vuzix M300 seamlessly when the M300 ships to customers later this year. The M300 represents the next generation of smart glasses, designed to address customer feedback from more than two years of productive use of the M100 in the field. The advanced ergonomic design and feature set of the new M300, combined with the latest release of the Skylight software platform, enables enterprise users to operate in an increasing number of scenarios and realize even more complex use cases, while continuing to use the Vuzix M100 as currently deployed within the same software platform. "Vuzix's focus on the enterprise customer shines in the M300 Smart Glasses," said Brian Ballard, Chief Executive Officer at APX Labs. "Our Skylight platform has been waiting for the capabilities and flexibility of the M300. It will allow customers to scale their smart glasses deployments faster and see a more immediate return on investment. This really is exciting for us and for the industry at large." "We are pleased to continue working very closely with APX Labs," said Paul Travers, President and Chief Executive Officer of Vuzix.
