Operation Support System Based on Augmented Reality Technology

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel operation support system that utilizes the latest Augmented Reality (AR) technology. Our system consists of a tablet device equipped with a camera. The system automatically recognizes an appliance by reading a QR code captured by the camera and estimates the relative position and orientation between the appliance and the camera in real-time to augment the guidance information to the appliance. Experiments show that our system can stably track camera movement and augment guidance information.
