Abstract

Numerous tools for layout verification have been developed in the past few years, which can verify the layout of industrial workshops based on 2D/3D data. However, it is difficult for these tools to visualize and realistically display the interaction and processing between workers and the layout. Augmented reality (AR) can provide visualizations and interact with real‐like three‐dimensional virtual objects, and it is a new tool for industrial workshop layout planning. This paper presents a methodology and the associated tool for using augmented reality in the collaborative layout planning of industrial workshops. Moreover, this paper uses motion capture technology to provide accurate human motion data for layout verification. It first describes the collaborative architecture of the application. Subsequently, application features like virtual model cloud loading, multi-person collaborative operation, and RULA-based layout verification. Finally, the paper illustrates possible usages and benefits of how the AR tool helps verify industrial workshops.
