Precision Assembly Process with Augmented Reality Technology Support

Abstract:

This article presents possibilities of precision assembling process by using special tools of the augmented reality (AR) and logical procedures from related areas such as a Computer Aided Design and Planning. These possibilities are implemented in the virtual assembling environment of AR, where engineers and designers can see important information about an exact position and orientation of the single assembly element that creates a part of the entire assembly structure. By means of this the application of AR allows costumer to see the motion process of single assembly item according to its trajectory and prevents the possible mistakes in the assembling processes.
