題目(Title): Industry 4.0 & Smart Assistance Systems

概要(Abstract): When looking at the current trends in industrial manufacturing, one can observe that the way we produce products is rapidly changing. On the one hand, there is a huge trend in the automation of repeated tasks. On the other hand, more and more products can be customized, leading to smaller lot sizes of individual products. Both trends indicate that the role of human work in production will change in future as well. Human work will still be required, but it will focus on more sophisticated tasks. While machines will execute standardized tasks, humans will concentrate on doing assembly work that either cannot be done by machines due to the complexity of the task or due to its uniqueness resulting from individualized products. To support humans in these increasingly complex assembly tasks, assistive systems using Augmented Reality (AR) technologies have been introduced that guide users through the work process. Generally, AR applications have high potential in industrial applications, especially in increasingly flexible, intelligent and autonomous production environments enabled by Smart Factories and Industry 4.0 technologies. This talk gives an introduction into the core concepts of Industry 4.0 as well as the challenges intelligent automation technologies are like to bring in the future and presents first examples of AR-based assistance systems that help workers to cope with the increased complexity of future work environments.
