Design of workshop visual production monitoring system based on UWB localization

Abstract

In the post-epidemic era, with the resumption of production, orders for large-scale and small-batch production exponentially increase, new challenges to the productivity of the traditional production line have appeared, such as the redundant information, complex production process, which lead the traditional monitoring system cannot satisfy the requirements of rapid information interaction between management and executive layer in the workshop. According to the healthy control during epidemic, physical contact between workers should be reduced. Therefore, Ultra Wide Band(UWB) indoor localization and Augmented Reality(AR) technology are introduced, based on localization information and mobile device camera attitude estimation, an actively push mobile monitoring system can be built, which makes the workshop managers timely and completely monitor the manufacturing resources, non-contact production was also ensured. Finally, taking one equipment in a workshop as an example, the virtual visualization models are constructed in Unity software, and the effectiveness of the mobile monitoring system is realized based on UWB indoor localization technology and AR technology.
