“…A ROS-based collaborative robot enables high bandwidth instrumentation of robot joint encoders and 3D visualization of robot configuration in real time via ROS rviz. (iv) An additional visualization facility for collaborative engineering is provided by a cluster of 6 high resolution virtual experience portals (VxPortals) [43], each consisting of a 4K 60hz display, a workstation and a depth-based sensor for tracking a small number of human users. The VxPortals are connected to VxLab and each other via a 10Gbps network.…”

Means to support collaboration for remote industrial facilities such as mining are an important topic, especially in Australia, where major mining sites can be more than a thousand kilometers from population centres. Software-based collaboration and maintenance solutions can help to reduce costs associated with these remote facilities. In this paper, we report on our collaborative engineering project providing a decision support solution tailored for Australian needs. We present two application examples: one related to incident handling in industrial automation, the other one in the area of smart energy systems.

In this report, we present example data sets and collections for the Be-SpaceD platform. BeSpaceD is a spatio-temporal modelling and reasoning software framework. We describe the content of a number of the data sets and how the data was obtained. We also present the programming API in BeSpaceD used to store and access these data sets so that future BeSpaceD users can utilise the data collections in their own experiments with minimal effort and expand the library of data collections for BeSpaceD.

“…ICT architecture for data display [3], AR-based picking instructions [4], displaying additional information within a factory [5], or virtual product inspection stations based on VR-goggles [6]. Additionally, there is work on VR-based collaboration [7], the use of exoskeletons within manufacturing tasks [8], and factory planning [9]. On the side of the robotic research, there are tools for developing immersion-based situational awareness (including virtual reality user experience) for robots supported by the robot operation system (ROS) using the native RViz visualization [10], this technology does not enable communication with the main frameworks used for AR and VR development: Unity and Unreal.…”

How to visualize recorded production data in Virtual Reality? How to use state of the art Augmented Reality displays that can show robot data? This paper introduces an opensource ICT framework approach for combining Unity-based Mixed Reality applications with robotic production equipment using ROS Industrial. This publication gives details on the implementation and demonstrates the use as a data analysis tool in the context of scientific exchange within the area of Mixed Reality enabled human-robot co-production.
