Description

Abstract

During this workshop, the participants will explore themes in three areas:

  • Augmented Reality and Technical Data Delivery. In this area we will hear from experts and engage in discussion to develop agreement among the workshop participants on what constitutes the state of the art for use of AR to deliver technical data in 2014.
  • Augmented Reality and the Shop Floor Environment. In this area we will engage in discussion to develop agreement among the workshop participants on what constitutes the state of the art for use of AR to map value streams and increase value, to avoid waste and increase sustainability, and to reduce risk and prevent human error on the shop floor in 2014. This will be documented in a brief, joint statement. Participants will then develop consensus on three major research areas on which there must be further investment in order for the technology to be widely implemented and adopted on the shop floor.
  • Augmented Reality and Quality Inspection. In this area we will engage in discussion to develop agreement among the workshop participants on what constitutes the state of the art for use of AR to inspect manufactured goods in 2014. This will be documented in a brief, joint statement. Participants will then develop consensus on three major research areas on which there must be further investment in order for the technology to be widely implemented and adopted.

The three themes of the workshop are highly relevant to the ISMAR conference, not least since the region -- Bavaria -- strives in the use of AR in the manufacturing industry. This workshop will increase awareness of the current state of the art in industry and help further develop the research agenda for AR in manufacturing through the identification of common interests and grand challenges. This workshop will produce nine research topics that can become the basis for academic and public/private partnership-funded research projects.

Organizer Background

Christine Perey's research interests focus on the use of mobile Augmented Reality in highly demanding application areas. Christine Perey is a Spime Wrangler and evangelist for mobile AR with 20 years experience in new multimedia communications markets and technologies. Perey performs market development and regularly prepares custom market research reports on contract with clients. She organizes the International AR Community chairs face-to-face meetings and leads programs to drive the adoption of open and interoperable AR.

Fridolin Wild is a researcher in technology enhanced learning at the 250k students strong Open University. He is currently leading the Augmented Reality prototype development in the industry-led TELLME project (http://tellme-ip.eu), innovating learning technologies for manufacturing environments. Fridolin is member of the Knowledge Media Institute of the OU since 2009. From 2004 to 2009 he was researcher at the Vienna University of Economics and Business (Austria). He graduated 2004 as magister artium from the University of Regensburg (Germany). He founded axon-e interactive media in 1998, and managed numerous commercial and governmental projects there until he left the company in 2003.

Kaj Helin is a Principal scientist in virtual engineering area. He is Vice-team manager of Human factors in complex systems and leader of Human-Machine Interaction and Virtual Engineering. Helin has participated and managed several EU and national projects. Kaj Helin joined VTT in 1998 and has gained 16 years of experience in VR/AR, simulation, safety analysis and ergonomics. He is also leading the Augmented Reality prototype development from Human factors side in the industry-led TELLME project.

Dr. Janak is research associate in the Faculty of Manufacturing Technologies at the Technical University of Košice, Slovakia, specializing in Augmented Reality for improved manufacturing. Current studies focus on improved recognition of industrial environments and the alignment of 3D models in advanced manufacturing. Past projects have been in the area of Open source tools in assembling process enriched with elements of augmented reality. Dr. Janak earned his Masters and PhD at the Technical University of Košice.

Paul Davies develops applications for Augmented Reality in Command and Control (C2), manufacturing, and surveillance, and investigates new methods of person-machine interaction for technician support. He is an Electrical Engineer specializing in digital signal processing, and works in the Production Systems Technology group in Boeing Research & Technology. He joined Boeing in 2004, and has since supported the Advanced Tactical Laser, Homeland Security & Services, Delta II and B1B programs in addition to multiple research projects in Augmented Reality, Machine Vision, and Signal Processing. Paul received a BS degree in Electrical Engineering from Rochester Institute of Technology and a MS degree in Electrical Engineering from California State University Long Beach.
