AR Applications for the Car Development Process at Volkswagen - Lessons Learned

Abstract

One of the main application themes for AR during the car development process involves the comparison of the really built objects to their CAD engineering data. When demonstrating mixed presentations of real and virtual objects to users, we realized that "classical AR setups" using an HMD were not favoured by the users. We thus investigated various alternatives, exploring tradeoffs between several critical design parameters of AR systems. For example, we realized that the overall positional accuracy of a system (as measured for a stationary setup) is outranked by latency issues during user motions. In this talk we show examples from some of the actual applications at Volkswagen to discuss current limitations of AR setups and to suggest solutions.
