Why Quality Inspection Has Become AR’s Killer Case for Enterprise And How They Can Benefit From It

Description

Industrial AR has a large history, pilling up few “top” but also lots of “flop” cases, to everyone's frustration. While for a long time the industry focused on AR-assisted maintenance or of procedure-like guidance use cases, it turned out, that companies are not struggling to incorporate XR-enabling technologies, but instead struggle rolling-out pilots as solutions. There is no doubt about the solution’s benefit, but because of manual efforts and challenges in data preparation and information authoring, the ROI is far too often not there.

AR-based quality inspection has turned to be different. Data needed for the use case is close, if not similar, to already existing 3D/CAD data from engineering, eliminating the need for further preparation other than tracking of objects in order to augment this data onto its corresponding object. AR, specifically, is _the_ enabler technology to find deviation quicker and more immediately. No other principle enables such immediate way to compare a manufactured item to its CAD specification. As such, it is the perfect match of technology, effort and output.
Turning tablets into inspection tools with AR, mobile devices are leaner compared to existing 3D scanning and metrology boxes (which produce similar results but need far more time for preparation and conduction) and more flexible, as small or even very large parts can be verified for quality in real time and directly on location, wherever parts are produced or stored.

In our talk we present use cases from automotive as well as mechanical engineering and welding industries, including agricultural manufacturer Krone and Slavia Production Systems (a “hidden champion“ from Eastern Europe, who’s a major automotive supplier), who were able to quickly integrate AR into their production and have since been successfully using it in everyday operations.

We illustrate how, with AR, SMEs and corporates can use their CAD data together with mobile devices to transform their current quality assurance and production processes. With a few steps, they gain from increased inspection throughput as well as a digitalized inspection plans, while reducing costs and time for quality assurance. What's more, ensuring high quality standards, companies will automatically become cleaner, save on material transportation and money by avoiding scrap and rework. What else but a "killer case" could AR be with that kind of ROI?

Many enterprises already realized use cases, in which immersive technologies generate added value. One of the key questions is still how to roll out these use case across the company at a large scale. The usage of complex data, visual quality of content, security aspects as well as the infrastructural base are challenges. Philipp Landgraf (Holo-Light) and Terry Schussler (Telekom) explain, how XR streaming and 5G solutions, such as managed latency, help to increase quality, reliability, and ultimately large rollouts of XR solutions.

As companies scramble to define what "hybrid work" looks like for their workforce, the first real use cases of photorealistic-quality, real-time holograms are helping organizations bridge a vital engagement gap in team collaboration. Allowing participants to interact in ways previously only possible in-person, this 3D technology also enables content sharing of both physical objects and 3D files, which allows users to simultaneously interact with the presenter and the content without being forced to focus on one experience at the detriment of the other.

This session will describe the first real world examples of how this innovative technology is being used by companies today. You will hear about a leading medical device manufacturer using 3D holograms in training scenarios for surgeons, as well as McLaren Racing, which is using it as a powerful tool for their design engineers, drivers and crews - rather than flying a technician to the racing team or explaining procedures through flat images, they can now immediately show an engine component from every angle, convey sizing, and instruct on assembly and usage as if they were in person – all while saving countless hours in travel time.
