Development of Educational Content Based on Augmented Reality for Light Maintenance of Railway Vehicle

Abstract

—Railway vehicle maintenance is performed in a work environment that requires high adaptability and expertise. Therefore, it is very important to systematically educate maintenance operators. However, maintenance education has been inefficiently conducted using booklet-type resources. Maintenance training should be conducted efficiently by visualizing the maintenance process in three-dimensional by applying the augmented reality (AR) technique. In this study, AR-based educational content was designed for a block brake device that induces an accurate position stop during train operation. To prove the effectiveness of the content, user experience evaluation was conducted through a survey consisting of 8 questions.
