Augmented Reality Support for Self-Assembly of Metal Storage Boxes
Abstract— Augmented Reality - AR - solutions are investigated and partially already used in the industrial
sector for product and process visualization, assembly training, assistance systems in assembly and
maintenance processes. This article presents the development and use of an AR app to assist in the selfassembly
of a metal storage box. Currently the storage boxes are still delivered containing printed assembly
and instruction manuals. The goal of this article is to show an approach and a solution to replace these with
easily downloadable apps for handheld AR.
Index Terms— augmented reality, handheld AR, self-assembly, assistance systems.
