Abstract
Augmented reality (AR) is an environment-enhancing technology, which has recently widely applied in various fields. The present study aims to provide an alternative approach to use augmented reality to assist the Information Technology (IT) operation and maintenance management in the power system. This paper presents the characteristics of IT operation management in power grid and the visual requirements, then the potentials of AR applications in IT management are discussed. The design and architecture of the IT operation management system of power grid with AR are also provided in this paper. An application with the technology of augmented reality has developed to demonstrate the analysis report on IT management in power grid, specifically on the reports of engine room, IT equipment, application systems and security. Such application helps operators and managers improve the way of analyzing the IT environment by visualizing the 3D world, assets, monitoring, and demonstration, which enables the users to understand the analysis reports more interactively, intuitively and efficiently. Finally this paper provides some other future research directions, and the conclusion that AR will play a key role and make significant contribution in improving the operation of the power system.
