Augmented Reality (AR) is worldwide recognized as one of the leading technologies of the 21st century and one of the pillars of the new industrial revolution envisaged by the Industry 4.0 international program. Several papers describe, in detail, specific applications of Augmented Reality developed to test its potentiality in a variety of fields. However, there is a lack of sources detailing the current limits of this technology in the event of its introduction in a real working environment where everyday tasks could be carried out by operators using an AR-based approach. A literature analysis to detect AR strength and weakness has been carried out, and a set of case studies has been implemented by authors to find the limits of current AR technologies in industrial applications outside the laboratory-protected environment. The outcome of this paper is that, even though Augmented Reality is a well-consolidated computer graphic technique in research applications, several improvements both from a software and hardware point of view should be introduced before its introduction in industrial operations. The originality of this paper lies in the detection of guidelines to improve the Augmented Reality potentialities in factories and industries.

“…According to recent studies on human cognition, the implementation of AR can have an impact on the expansion of human cognition via the proposed interactive interfaces [33]. Different aspects of intellectual and human cognition-such as cognitive load, attention, perception, emotion, evaluation, memory and knowledge formation-can be considered in the AR/MR user evaluation process to gain an inclusive understanding of their impact and enhance their effectiveness [34]. Baker-Ericzén [35] suggests that people with special needs can sustainably develop their cognitive abilities and social skills by implementing intervention programs.…”

“…Another study [59,90] indicated that the navigation skills of the participants were improved. Moreover, Schall Jr [34] demonstrated that AR cuing enhanced the detection of target objects with low visibility to improve driving safety. By the same token, AR might lead to increased motivation and engagement, especially in the case of children with special needs.…”

The Utilization of Augmented Reality Technology for Sustainable Skill Development for People with Special Needs: A Systematic Literature Review

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

New technologies such as Augmented Reality can be used to enhance the possibility of obtaining new experiences to assist people with special needs. However, in the literature, there are not enough studies conducted on the use of Augmented Reality as an assistive technology, especially for people with special needs. The purpose of this study is to highlight the use of Augmented Reality technology on people with special needs for skill development. This systematic literature review includes recent and high-quality articles from chosen prestige databases between the years 2010 and 2020. The selected studies which fitted the eligibility selection criteria have been analyzed and synthesized. The study findings reveal the importance of using AR technology to assist individuals with special needs in their skill development process, to help them become more independent. We hope this study will enlighten researchers and the developers of AR tools. It has been recommended that more studies be done on the sustainable use of AR as an assistive technology, particularly for children with special needs, to make their life easier.

“…The research field of augmented reality (AR) is of increasing popularity, as seen, among others, in several recently published surveys [5,6,[8][9][10]12]. To produce further advancements in AR, it is not only necessary to create new systems or applications, but also to evaluate them.…”

“…To produce further advancements in AR, it is not only necessary to create new systems or applications, but also to evaluate them. One important aspect in regards to the evaluation is the general understanding of how users experience a given AR application, which can also be seen by the increased number of papers focusing on this topic [12] that were published in the last years. With the steadily growing understanding and development of AR in general, it is only a matter of time until AR devices make the leap into the consumer market where such an in-depth user understanding is even more essential.…”
