Integration of Augmented Reality Technologies in Process Modeling - The Augmentation of Real World Scenarios with the KMDL

Abstract

The integration of powerful technologies in traditional domains realizes promising potentials but mostly rises complexity and shrinks comprehensibility of underlying processes. With the aim to rise comprehensibility of non-transparent processes, a process modeling language has been transfered in 3-D and prepared to augment the real world. Definitions for a methodological proceeding have been created and were mapped to a software tool. Three scenarios then have been realized as demonstration and proof the working of drawn AR integrations. Focusing non-transparent processes, scenarios visualize tacit knowledge transfers (1), complex coordination mechanisms (2) and process simulations (3) in the domain of cyber-physical production systems.
