This includes order picking drones, simulating production processes, and robots, which intervene automatically when a machine experiences failure states.\u00a0In different presentations, benefits and risks of digitizing industrial processes were discussed.\u00a0Advantages, such as passing dangerous tasks to robots or being supported by an artificial intelligence has pondered against considerations regarding privacy and level of freedoms in industrial productions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We from the hciLab at the University of Stuttgart\u00a0received the opportunity to present a four year ongoing project called motionEAP, which belongs to the project group &#8220;AUTONOMIK 4.0&#8221;. In this project, manual assembly workplaces are enriched\u00a0by projections, which support workers at their work by projecting assembly instruction-based feedback directly into their workplace. A depth camera is used to detect hand gestures and assembly steps. Being able to acquire the current state of the assembly, appropriate feedback is projected in real-time. Moreover, manual assemblies are often produced\u00a0on-demand with low lot sizes by a customer. As for the worker, this requires to study new assembly instructions, where motionEAP provides new assembly instructions on the fly by recognizing a QR code on a workpiece carrier. This lowers the mental efforts workers have when assembling new products.
