Mixed reality for assembly processes, programming and guiding

Sammanfattning: Assembly processes are an integral part of many industries, including manufacturing and production. These processes typically involve the use of robots and automated equipment to perform tasks such as picking, placing, and joining components. One solution is Mixed Reality (MR), which combines virtual and real-world elements to create an immersive environment for the operator. MR technology can be used to guide operators through the assembly process, providing real-time feedback and instructions, as well as allowing them to program the assembly process and adjust as needed.  The project was focused on developing a user interface for the Hololens 2 glasses that would allow operators to select different tools and robots and configure targets and processes for an assembly station. The team also developed a system to send information about targets, paths, and joint values to the virtual and real robot, which allowed operators to easily program the robot to perform the assembly process. It was possible to develop and test the MR system in a real-world assembly setting, evaluating its effectiveness in improving the efficiency and accuracy of the process. This project wants to demonstrate the potential of MR technology for improving assembly processes and to provide a proof-of-concept for future development in this field.
