Abstract

This paper presents an experimental study on a mobile augmented reality application for immersive training of field engineers in service and maintenance of a medical analyzer (AQT90FLEX). Based on approaches from user experience design, we developed an AR training application with the aim of high level of relevance, ease of use, usefulness, user satisfaction, and learnability. Sixteen field engineers from the multinational company Radiometer participated in the study. The procedure was divided into three iterative stages: design, prototype, and evaluation. The methods consisted of questionnaires, interviews, and co-creation. The questionnaire was inspired by the technology acceptance model. The findings revealed that all the field engineers expressed positive feedback in terms of being able to see, train, and practice on the AQT90FLEX analyzer. Especially the usefulness and user satisfaction were positively evaluated. This study also shows the importance of using mixed methods, both qualitative and quantitative approaches, in order to develop an AR training application for field engineers across the world.
