SAP this week will begin selling two workplace-related augmented reality apps for use with Android Wear smart glasses, including Google Glass, to aid warehouse workers and field service technicians.

Pricing hasn’t been announced for the new apps, which are called SAP AR Warehouse Picker and SAP AR Service Technician. They will be sold generally in the Google Play store.

SAP released two separate videos showing how the apps can be used with Vuzix smart glasses to fulfill orders in a warehouse  or to assist a field service technician making a repair call in a complex setting. In the second video, a repairman uses smart glasses to locate a switching room in the basement of a sports stadium by obeying audible commands and following navigation arrows that appear on the lens of the device (see video).
