Industrial Augmented Reality - A Framework for Defining Requirements

Year 2024, Volume: 1 Issue: 1, 11 - 23, 26.04.2024

Detlef Gerhard Jan Luca Siewert

Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) boasts a wide array of applications throughout the entire product lifecycle; however, its adoption in industrial settings is often impeded by factors such as high setup costs, poor system integration, and limited modality. Despite these challenges, current Industrial Augmented Reality (IAR) applications exhibit a significant overlap in components used for information gathering and visualization. This paper describes the current state of modern IAR architectures and introduces a novel framework for the definition of requirements specific to IAR applications. This draws upon the principles of human-cantered design to provide a structured approach for integrating IAR more effectively in industrial contexts. Finally, a case-study shows how the framework can be used to help implement an assistance system for assembly of a simple product.
