Abstract
Organizing and presenting necessary information to electric power workforces just-in-time is a challenging issue. Today Electric Power Industry (EPI) severely suffers from the lack of sufficient knowledge of young workforces at the field. Current offline paper-based training methods or voice call assistants rarely able to help these workforces in a disaster situation. Recently industrial Augmented Reality (AR) tools open new insight for remote assistance through virtualizing necessary information on the real environment. That is, using AR tools, field workforces can observe required information just-in-time and in-location in front of their eyes. Here, one question is how AR technology will change the EPI. To answer this question and shape the power stakeholders' viewpoint in the adaption of industrial AR, we precisely review the potential use cases and case studies of pragmatic industrial AR in the EPI in this paper. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is one of the first comprehensive studies of AR opportunities in the EPI. Studies in this paper show that AR applications in the EPI is in the infancy stage and needs remarkable consideration to develop AR tools in accordance with the electric power requirements.
