Abstract

Factory Automation Support Technology (FAST) is a new project for Georgia Tech researchers. FAST is intended to: 1) train employees as they perform their jobs, rather than before they perform their jobs, and 2) meet the needs of today's mobile work force. To meet these needs, FAST combines performance support software with wearable hardware. We hope that this will decrease the amount of nonproductive training time while improving worker performance.
