Abstract
Electrical machines are used almost everywhere, and our daily life depends on them. For this reason, it is important to articulate mechanisms to control, supervise, and perform proper maintenance of these machines, especially those used in critical industrial process. The SCADA protocol is one of the technologies that eases the operation and supervision of electrical machines. However, the absence of a spatial connection between the SCADA signals and the machines being supervised suggests the use of augmented reality (AR) to fill this void. This chapter describes SIMARA: A Mobile AR application based on a dual computer-vision system (QR-codes and fiducial markers). SIMARA provides a robust client application for the integration of AR and SCADA signals by means of virtual panels shown on top of real SCADA machines. An authoring tool is also provided in order for users to customize the application to their particular needs, allowing to create, by means of web services, customized virtual panels, and links between SCADA signals and the virtual information shown in the AR application.
