With the increasing use of TFT monitors in machine controllers, the possibilities of interaction and visualization have changed considerably. On the same side modern production systems are getting more and more complex and a huge amount of information has to be visualized. To investigate the usefulness of virtual human-like characters -so called avatars -in industrial applications, a concept for visualization of specific information through different kinds of avatars within the same application will be presented. The specific character of a single avatar varies depending on the specific information to be presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
