Abstract

The manual assembly has a high proportion in industry. However, in many industrial scenarios, manual assembly in the Vision Blind Areas (VBAs) is time-consuming and challenging due to the lack of necessary visual information. This study presented a see-through Augmented Reality (AR) system to solve the problems during manual assembly in the vision blind area. This system enabled users to see the inner components of the VBAs cross the surface of mechanical products. The human hand and the mechanical part in a VBA were tracked and rendered in an AR HMD. We developed a prototype system and conducted a user study to evaluate the system usability, users’ performance and workload. The results indicated that this system was well integrated and easy to use. Moreover, participants worked with this system had a lower workload with improved performance.
