A 3D and augmented reality (AR) tool Stanley Infrastructure started using almost a year ago is helping its sales force and dealer partners demonstrate attachment features remotely in this time of social distancing.

Software provider TricSoftware Trick 3D used Stanley’s CAD models to create the animations, working with the company to determine which features and benefits to call out.
While the coronavirus has put a premium on virtual sales solutions, Stanley’s Tool Bucket has proven valuable even in normal times for trade shows and more.
No Wi-Fi or phone service is needed after the app is downloaded. Stanley Infrastructure has put several of its more than 200 product categories on the Tool Bucket app, which provides interactive 3D graphics of attachment features.
The Tool Bucket also helps engage customers in a new and interactive way. Users can zoom in and out and remotely demonstrate how a tool works. This is especially helpful with the more involved attachments the company produces, such as its LaBounty shears and processors.
The Tool Bucket is also available on the Apple App Store.
