“…When introducing AR technologies, companies encounter different influencing factors, challenges and obstacles. Based on expert interviews, the authors in [8] identified 11 influencing factors and 25 associated challenges in the implementation and use of wearables. The influencing factors were grouped into three super categories: Technological, organizational and environmental (e.g., data protection and security).…”

“…Most of the AR research in the last 20 years has come from the scientific domain [13], with fewer reports on industrial AR applications. Moreover, most of the research deals with technical aspects of assistance systems [8]. There are not many deployment reports and applications in enterprises yet.…”

With emerging technologies, research is increasingly focusing on the digitalization of the working world and the resulting potentials, but also risks, for employees. People and technology are beginning to grow together in industrial environments. New technologies can support skills and improve results of the daily work, but the most important factor is still the human being. Assistance systems based on Augmented Reality (AR) are increasingly attract the attention of companies. Currently, there are not many implementation reports and applications in companies. This paper discusses the findings based on observations from industrial site inspections in the areas of training, commissioning of goods, and the manual assembly process. Inspections took place at three pioneering companies in the automotive industry, online distance selling, and the energy sector. When it comes to the use of assistance systems, the main goals of these companies that are very open to innovation are to improve efficiency and quality, e.g., minimize errors and optimize speed. Qualitative content analysis was used to evaluate the interview transcripts, the collected transcripts and notes from the guided tours, and the brief participations in these industries. The results are presented in the form of user experiences with AR addressing their advantages and disadvantages in the context of use. In addition, these were categorized into a predefined classification of influencing factors and challenges.

“…[18]) konnte der Einfluss von Wettbewerbern auf die Technologieadoption in der vorliegenden Untersuchung nicht bestätigt werden. Vielmehr ist festzustellen, dass Rahmenbedingungen wie fehlende Sicherheitsregularien und Datensicherheitsbedenken die Adoption von ARAS und Wearables im Allgemeinen beeinflussen [36]. Es kommt hinzu, dass die Verfügbarkeit von Entwicklern für Augmented-Reality-Devices die Diffusion der Technologie beeinträchtigt.…”

Augmented-Reality-Assistenzsysteme unterstützen Arbeitsprozesse aktiv im Sinne einer intelligenten Fabrik. Sie bieten insbesondere kleinen und mittelständischen Unternehmen (KMU) aus dem produzierenden Gewerbe Vorteile, indem die menschlich induzierte Fehlerquote reduziert und Einarbeitungsprozesse effizienter gestaltet werden können. Dennoch stellt ihre Adoption in der Praxis bisher eine Seltenheit dar. Ziel dieses Beitrages ist es daher, die Adoptionsdeterminanten von Augmented-Reality-Assistenzsystemen in KMU mithilfe des Technology-Organization-Environment-Frameworks und qualitativer Forschung in Form von semi-strukturierten Interviews zu explorieren. Die Ergebnisse zeigen u. a., dass organisatorische Aspekte wie fehlendes Expertenwissen sowie die Qualifikation der Mitarbeiter die Adoption beeinflussen.
