Abstract
In power plants, in many cases direct human access to crucial sites for inspection or maintenance is impossible. Here, remotely operated robots offer good potential to handle these tasks. This relates to technology challenges for remote operations. In this contribution we propose the use of an Augmented Reality interface as a means to directly and intuitively visualize complex information to overcome some of the challenges and support the teleoperator in his duties. Support functions that could be employed for several tasks in the context of inspection or maintenance are introduced.
