“…While several studies propose assembly support from the information side [11], [12] in cell production, the attentive workbench supports human workers from both informaion and physical side. Sugi et al [8] deals with the motion control method of multiple self-moving trays that is necessary for efficient physical assembly support.…”

We have proposed "Attentive Workbench (AWB)," a deskwork support system. Using cameras, projectors, and selfmoving trays, the system supports human user from both physical and informational aspects. In this paper, an interface between the user and AWB based on pointing gestures is developed. Considering the usage of AWB, a simple and reliable interface with quick response is implemented. Deskwork support using the present interface and real self-moving trays are demonstrated.

: This paper examines the effect of instructions on parts' positions during an assembly task having numerous parts for someone to remember where they are located. Hypothesizing that instructions relating to the positions of the parts would enhance work efficiency and reduce workload, we designed an experimental method to test this theory. In this experiment using educational blocks, visual instructions were given by illuminating the space where the parts are kept, while auditory instructions were provided to aid locating the parts to compare the efficiency of visual and auditory instructions. Experiments with six participants showed that the visual instruction significantly shortened not only the search time but also the assembly time (which was one way in which efficiency was assessed in this study). The use of parts' positions instructions tended to reduce the workload as evaluated with NASA-TLX compared with the cases without instructions.
