Abstract:
In this paper, we present an approach to directly instruct workers in the quality check division of a car production line. We simulated the complete manual functional check of a car to test the possibilities of using one selected binocular optical See-Through Head-Worn Display. Furthermore, we chose one subtask to be Augmented Reality-supported to get an impression of the capabilities of this technology in this application area. Also, we tested a finger-worn input-device, representing type of ”close to the body”-input-devices. For the whole implementation we applied the Human Centred Design Approach as described in ISO 9241 - 210. We evaluated the application with four workers from the selected division. Even though we could not implement all requirements exactly as they were requested, the participants responded positively to the selected Head-Worn Display, the finger-worn input modality and the augmentation we provide.
