Abstract
Workforces in electrical power sector is highly qualified. It is due to the continuous improvement effort of these professionals and many rules they have to follow daily. Their activity presents risks, and it needs to be done carefully to safeguard their life. The electrical power sector has a short history and it has been considered a conservative sector, meaning, that the assets and the way they are operated have not been following all technological trends in industry. Those analysis lead to a major concern regarding the aging of workforces and how to transfer knowledge and experiences to a new workforce. In that sense, this paper proposes a smartphone application aiming to simplify the access to information during the execution of the on-field activities. The aforementioned app can automatically recognize some assets and show relevant information about them in Augmented Reality. Some benefits brought by this application include reducing time for asset identification, faster information finding, improving and agile problem solving avoiding the use of paper documents, etc. This application is implemented within the scope of Urban Futurability Project, an innovation project that ENEL Distribuiç ão Sao Paulo is carrying out in Brazil in the framework of the Brazilian regulator's R&D) program.
