Title
A Review on Industrial Augmented Reality Systems for the Industry 4.0 Shipyard.
Abstract
Shipbuilding companies are upgrading their inner workings in order to create Shipyards 4.0, where the principles of Industry 4.0 are paving the way to further digitalized and optimized processes in an integrated network. Among the different Industry 4.0 technologies, this paper focuses on augmented reality, whose application in the industrial field has led to the concept of industrial augmented reality (IAR). This paper first describes the basics of IAR and then carries out a thorough analysis of the latest IAR systems for industrial and shipbuilding applications. Then, in order to build a practical IAR system for shipyard workers, the main hardware and software solutions are compared. Finally, as a conclusion after reviewing all the aspects related to IAR for shipbuilding, it proposed an IAR system architecture that combines cloudlets and fog computing, which reduce latency response and accelerate rendering tasks while offloading compute intensive tasks from the cloud.
