Abstract

Within the Cluster of Excellence "Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries" of RWTH Aachen University a numerical control unit and its ergonomic human-machine interface are developed for a robotized production unit. In order to cope with novel systems, the human operator will have to meet new challenges regarding the work requirements. Therefore, a first prototype of an augmented vision system to assist the human operator is developed dealing with the task of error detection and identification in an assembly object. Laboratory tests have been performed to find a preferable solution to display information.
