Introduction and establishment of virtual training in the factory of the future

Use of Industry 4.0 and Organisational Innovation Concepts in the Serbian Textile and Apparel Industry

“…The term Industry 4.0 was firstly introduced in Germany at the Hanover Fair in 2011 [15]. It has emerged as a popular catchphrase in German industry to cover functional areas such as efficient, individual production at lot size 1 under the condition of highly flexible mass production in the emergence of cyber-physical systems and internet of things technologies in the production domain [16]. Similar terms were also introduced in other main industrial countries -"Industrial Internet" in the USA and "Internet +" in China [17].…”

An Industrial Social Network for Sharing Knowledge Among Operators

“…Focus is given to the didactic approach and the interaction modalities for the specific class of target users, namely ageing employees. However, although several studies have confirmed the positive impact of virtual training on procedural learning in manual industrial tasks (Adams et al, 2001;Lin et al, 2002;Gorecky et al, 2017), virtual training has not become a standard in daily industrial practice yet. This is mainly due to limited users' acceptance and the authoring efforts for collecting the relevant data, defining the training scenarios and plans (Gorecky et al, 2017).…”

These drawbacks are partially solved by on-line support tools relying on augmented reality, which assist and guide workers during the execution of manual tasks.…”

TransparentHMD

“…Additionally, there is a plethora of work about collaborative environments in which non-HMD users collaborate with HMD users in. This can be in scientific context for example, VR training where the trainee wears an HMD while the trainer uses a PC [7,13], building 3D scenes where the designer is a non-HMD user and an HMD user perceives the scene [4,10], and collaborative virtual environments (CVEs) [5]. Or it can have a commercial background like presenting cars in an HMD based configuration tool [1]…”
