Abstract Augmented Reality (AR) in the assembly process will improve the user's experience by providing interactive instructions in real time. However, no previous application of AR guided assembly for laptops with a high level of assembly complexity has been developed. The research aims to develop an AR guided assembly application to provide instruction on the assembly of a laptop. The assembly complexity of the laptop was also investigated. The development of the AR application involves the creation of model target, 3D models and animations, and the development of user interface. The laptop assembly consists of ten steps. Each step comprises animated 3D models and text detailing the assembly instructions. Speech recognition has been used to navigate the assembly sequence. The AR application has successfully been developed for laptop assembly with an assembly complexity of 6.63. With the developed application, the performance of the laptop assembly can be accelerated.

Recent advances have shown, that the base technology of augmented reality have matured the point of being usable only by specialists. But existing augmented reality applications are still prototypes. They are developed without any authoring system, only by software experts. To support the wide use of augmented reality technology, the designers of augmented reality application need methods and software tools to create the contents in a fast and cheap way. In this paper we describe an authoring system for creating augmented reality content in an easy and user friendly way. The system allows the creation of augmented reality applications in a straight forward way. By using meta-constructs like menus, selection lists or hotspots as well as illustration objects like 3D-models, videos, texts and sounds a variety of applications can be created without previous technological knowledge. A preview window is also part of the authoring system displaying the actual created AR-application.

Abstract. The use of Augmented Reality (AR) technology is widespread in countless archaeological sites and a variety of applications. Archaeological excavations lead to archaeological finds, some of which are transported for preservation and then for exhibition in museums (jewelry, vases, etc.), while another part of them is documented in detail and remains in situ (eg building walls), roads, grave covers, etc.). However, after the registration of the archaeological finds, it is impossible to observe them. As part of our research project, we will develop for the first time AR methodology and procedures for the observation of covered archaeological finds on mobile devices (smart phones, tablets), which were registered after their documentation. AR technology in recent years has seen great growth in terms of implementation platforms and available software, as well as the tools developed to support it. These tools either make their appearance in the form of frameworks, extending the capabilities of an existing engine, or function as independent services. At the same time, progress has been made in the field of sensors of mobile devices, which makes the compatibility of hardware and software another issue to be researched. As part of the development of the above application for mobile devices, an evaluation is made of the most widespread AR Frameworks that support the Unity3d Game Engine and the compatibility / interoperability with the sensors of different categories of mobile devices. The frameworks were checked and evaluated for placement and tracking of the positions of the 3D covered objects. In this paper also, methodologies and techniques used in space detection and tracking are presented and evaluated.

Small series production with a high level of variability is not suitable for full automation. So, a manual assembly process must be used, which can be improved by cooperative robots and assisted by augmented reality devices. The assisted assembly process needs reliable object recognition implementation. Currently used technologies with markers do not work reliably with objects without distinctive texture, for example, screws, nuts, and washers (single colored parts). The methodology presented in the paper introduces a new approach to object detection using deep learning networks trained remotely by 3D virtual models. Remote web application generates training input datasets from virtual 3D models. This new approach was evaluated by two different neural network models (Faster RCNN Inception v2 with SSD, MobileNet V2 with SSD). The main advantage of this approach is the very fast preparation of the 2D sample training dataset from virtual 3D models. The whole process can run in Cloud. The experiments were conducted with standard parts (nuts, screws, washers) and the recognition precision achieved was comparable with training by real samples. The learned models were tested by two different embedded devices with an Android operating system: Virtual Reality (VR) glasses, Cardboard (Samsung S7), and Augmented Reality (AR) smart glasses (Epson Moverio M350). The recognition processing delays of the learned models running in embedded devices based on an ARM processor and standard x86 processing unit were also tested for performance comparison.

Dengan berkembangnya teknologi, kesadaran akan pentingnya alat musik tradisional menjadi berkurang. Demikian juga dengan alat musik tradisional Bangka yang mulai kehilangan popularitasnya. Kondisi saat ini, para remaja di Bangka kebanyakan tidak dapat memainkan alat musik tradisionalnya. Begitu juga dengan anak-anak yang belum mengetahui dan bahkan tidak mengenal alat musik tradisional daerah mereka. Jika kondisi ini dibiarkan, dikhawatirkan keberadaan alat musik tradisional Bangka akan hilang, begitu juga dengan sumber daya manusia yang dapat memainkannya. Untuk menghindari hal tersebut, dibuatlah aplikasi pengenalan alat musik tradisional Bangka menggunakan Augmented Reality (AR). AR dipilih karena dapat memberikan gambaran alat musik secara real time dalam bentuk 3D sesuai dengan pergerakan kamera smartphone yang dinamis. Empat objek 3D alat musik yakni dambus, rebab, rebanatamborin, dan gong yang dibuat menggunakan Autodesk Maya. AR yang dibangun menggunakan metode berbasis marker. Metode ini dipilih agar lebih mudah digunakan oleh pengguna yang mayoritasnya adalah anak-anak. Selain itu, kelebihan metode ini memiliki tingkat akurasi posisi yang sangat tinggi. Unity sebagai engine untuk penerapan AR 3D modelling pada sistem Android dan Vuforia SDK sebagai engine pembentuk marker augmented reality. Pengujian fungsional memiliki hasil 100% dengan sistem yang berjalan baik. Hasil pengujian kinerja deteksi objek AR berdasarkan intensitas cahaya diketahui bahwa smartphone yang memiliki dua kamera di bagian belakang dapat mendeteksi objek dengan intensitas cahaya 0 Lux pada malam hari dengan kondisi gelap, sedangkan yang hanya memiliki satu kamera tidak dapat mendeteksi objek. Pengujian warna marker mendapatkan hasil modifikasi warna marker pink, kuning, dan hitam yang masih memungkinkan untuk pendeteksian objek, walaupun objek yang tampil tidak stabil. Dari pengujian kertas marker diketahui bahwa jenis kertas tidak berpengaruh terhadap pendeteksian objek. Pengujian beta dilakukan dengan cara membagikan kuesioner terkait pengalaman pengguna dalam penggunaan sistem. Hasil survei diketahui pengguna merasa sangat setuju dengan nilai sebesar 80%, bahwa penggunaan sistem dapat membantu mereka dalam mengenal alat musik tradisional Bangka.   With the incessant development of technology, awareness on the importance of traditional musical instruments has declined. Similarly, teenagers living in Bangka no longer play their traditional musical instruments, and children are not exposed to their cultural heritage. However, if this continues, it is feared that the existence of traditional Bangka musical instruments will soon go extinct. To avoid this, researchers have proposed an application to identify this media using Augmented Reality (AR). This technique was chosen due to its ability to provide visuals of musical instruments in real time using 3D models in accordance with the dynamic movement of smartphone cameras. This comprises of four 3D objects namely dambus, rebab, rebanatamborin, and gong, which were designed and developed using Autodesk Maya. AR is built using marker-based methods, which was chosen for easy use because majority of its users are children, and its high level of accuracy. Unity was utilized as an engine for its implementation in the Android system, and Vuforia SDK as augmented reality marker-builder engine. Functional testing showed 100% results which means that the system is running well. From the results of the AR object detection performance test based on light intensity it is known that a smartphone with two cameras in the backside has the ability to detect objects with a light intensity of 0 Lux in dark rooms, while the other smartphone with one camera failed to detect the objects. Color testing obtained a modification of marker colors comprising of pink, yellow, and black which are still able to detect objects, although not stable. The paper test marker has no effect on object detection. Beta testing questionnaires were used to obtain information related to user experience. From the survey results, it is known that users strongly agree (80%) that the use of the system helps them to recognize traditional Bangka musical instruments.

Augmented reality in Indonesia has been widely used as a media aids in teaching in the classroom, to enhance a better learning interaction between teachers and students. Students can learn independently by observing augmented reality objects that are developed without the need to be guided. Unfortunately developing an augmented reality application takes a lot of effort especially for teachers, there are not many teachers who can develop an augmented reality application. Based on these problems, through the APSI organization, community service activities were carried out in the form of training on making 3D models based on augmented reality which was attended by representatives of 15 teachers from Jadebotabek. The training activities were divided into 3 sessions, namely the first session through the lecture method, the second session the guided tutorial method and the last session with training. The results of the implementation of this training are the teacher is able to make augmented reality applications independently and is able to make augmented reality based hydrological teaching aids that can be used to enrich learning in the classroom.

In this paper, we present a usability evaluation of a custom AR educational tool designed to improve students’ understanding of the similarities and differences between plant and animal cells. We argue that the design of the Augmented Reality Plant & Animal Cells (ARPAC) tool promotes a self-driven approach to learning by presenting textbook content as interactive, 3D models that can be uncovered by exploring sections of their school textbooks with our app. Furthermore, the design of ARPAC can be mapped easily onto other subjects, providing teachers with additional pedagogical tools to utilize in the classroom. Preliminary results of a usability study support our initial design of a textbook-driven AR application to support learning in science subjects.

The Dougong structure is an ancient architectural innovation of the East. Its construction method is complex and challenging to understand from drawings. Scale models were developed to preserve this culturally-unique architectural technique by learning through their assembly process. In this work, augmented reality (AR)-based systems that support the manual assembly of the Dougong models with instant interactions were developed. The first objective was to design new AR-assisted functions that overcome existing limitations of paper-based assembly instructions. The second one was to clarify whether or not and how AR can improve the operational efficiency or quality of the manual assembly process through experiments. The experimental data were analyzed with both qualitative and quantitative measures to evaluate the assembly efficiency, accuracy, and workload of these functions. The results revealed essential requirements for improving the functional design of the systems. They also showed the potential of AR as an effective human interfacing technology for assisting the manual assembly of complex objects.
