“…Position papers typically describe the potentials of AR usage in different fields, encompassing finite elements analysis studies (Weidlich et al, 2008), virtual manufacturing (Novak-Marcincin and Novakova-Marcincinova, 2013), mobile learning (Chen, 2014) and lean manufacturing, this latter in terms of waste reduction and improvement in process efficiency (Huenerfauth, 2014). Anastassova and Burkhardt (2009) discussed the benefits of AR as a tool to solve some typical training problems for automotive service technicians.…”

The aim of this article is to analyze and review the scientific literature relating to the application of Augmented Reality (AR) technology in industry. AR technology is becoming increasingly diffuse, due to the ease of application development and the widespread use of hardware devices (mainly smartphones and tablets) able to support its adoption. Today, a growing number of applications based on AR solutions are being developed for industrial purposes. Although these applications are often little more than experimental prototypes, AR technology is proving highly flexible and is showing great potential in numerous areas (e.g., maintenance, training/learning, assembly or product design) and in industrial sectors (e.g., the automotive, aircraft or manufacturing industries). It is expected that AR systems will become even more widespread in the near future.The purpose of this review is to classify the literature on AR published from 2006 to early 2017, to identify the main areas and sectors where AR is currently deployed, describe the technological solutions adopted, as well as the main benefits achievable with this kind of technology.ARTICLE HISTORY

Augmented reality (AR) has recently become a worldwide research topic. AR technology renders intuitive computer-generated contents on users' physical surroundings. To improve process efficiency and productivity, researchers and developers have paid increasing attention to AR applications in engineering analysis and simulation. The integration of AR with numerical simulation, such as the finite element method, provides a cognitive and scientific way for users to analyze practical problems. By incorporating scientific visualization technologies, an AR-based system superimposes engineering analysis and simulation results directly on real-world objects. Engineering analysis and simulation involving diverse types of data are normally processed using specific computer software. Correct and effective visualization of these data using an AR platform can reduce the misinterpretation in spatial and logical aspects. Moreover, tracking performance of the AR platforms in engineering analysis and simulation is crucial as it influences the overall user experience. The operating environment of the AR platforms requires robust tracking performance to deliver stable and accurate information to the users. In addition, over the past several decades, AR has undergone a transition from desktop to mobile computing. The portability and propagation of mobile platforms has provided engineers with convenient access to relevant information in situ. However, on-site working environment imposes constraints on the development of mobile AR-based systems. This paper aims to provide a systematic overview of AR in engineering analysis and simulation. The visualization, tracking techniques as well as the implementation on mobile platforms are discussed. Each technique is analyzed with respect to its pros and cons, as well its suitability to particular types of applications.

“…Some Researcher used smart devices to augment-visualize simulations of buildings on the outside and made it possible for many users to participate and cooperate [9]. Some Researcher used smart devices to visualize simulations of machines [13]. The method proposed by Weidlich is made up of serverclient method; server reads data and calculates simulation results whilst client renders and visualizes simulation results.…”
