- Analyzing VR and AR I4.0 technologies for industrial applications: A comparative study and selection approach development(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2024-12-11) Chavez Najera, Daniela Monserrat; Ahuett Garza, Horacio; emipsanchez; Urbina Coronado, Pedro Daniel; Orta Castañón, Pedro Antonio; School of Engineering and Sciences; Campus MonterreyIn recent years, the implementation of immersive technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) for Industry 4.0 (I4.0) applications has increased considerably. These technologies enable the connection of virtual and real environments focusing on human centered manufacturing. A challenge when implementing immersive technologies in industrial tasks is the lack of clear paths to select the most appropriate technology for specific operations, and the nonexistence of metrics to evaluate the integration performance. Nonetheless, there are trends in the literature that offer insights to conduct the decision making process for selection between immersive technologies, ensuring the suitability of the application. Based on the decision criteria identified in the literature a decision making approach is developed. This thesis also presents the development workflow of three VR/AR applications implemented in Unity Engine for Meta Quest 3 and Hololens 2. These applications are evaluated using overall performance metrics and are analyzed using the proposed approach.
- The augmented robotic cell: design and implementation of a testing cell that incorporates mixed reality and iot(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2022-06-20) Tavares Rodríguez, José Alberto; TAVARES RODRIGUEZ, JOSE ALBERTO; 835771; Urbina Coronado, Pedro Daniel; puelquio/mscuervo; Orta Castañón, Pedro; Ahuett Garza, Horacio; Escuela de Ingeniería y Ciencias; Campus MonterreyMixed Reality (MR) has the potential to be one of the key technologies aligned with the Industry 4.0 principles that many companies around the world are adopting. This technology, combined with the Internet of Things and the enhanced capabilities introduced by the Cyber-Physical Systems, can contribute to building a collaborative industrial environment. The integration of these concepts represents a new tool to improve and accelerate human-machine communication through digitalization and the connectivity between devices. Currently, many of the equipment employed within the Manufacturing Industry demand a minimum level of knowledge and experience for them to be used. In some cases, this can lead to the specialization of workers, which can have some advantages like reducing human error and operation time. However, this can also decrease the worker’s flexibility for performing different tasks or using other equipment than the ones it is used to. Besides, the learning process is commonly time-consuming and costly, and the risk of errors is not entirely eradicated. MR technologies, especially Augmented Reality (AR), can solve this issue by creating a virtual environment that can be used for training purposes or guidance while performing different tasks. AR makes it possible to merge the real world with the digital world, providing digital tools that enhance the visualization of valuable and easy-to-understand information in real-time. This can provide feedback to the user so the process can be better understood and help identifying possible improvements and failures while ensuring a safer environment for the worker. Although being a technology with many possible benefits, it is relatively new and comes with limitations that are yet to be overcome before being fully exploited. Therefore, it is crucial to study the current state of this technology in terms of capabilities, the feasibility of its integration for industrial applications, and the expected performance in this environment. This research work aims to implement an Augmented Robotic Cell that integrates AR technology with IoT. The system is used to test a 3D printed Compliant Mechanism, obtain data from this process, and display important information in an MR environment in near real-time. The AR device is able to retrieve relevant information from the Physical System and display it to the user while allowing him to interact with it.
- Development of an augmented reality interface for a manufacturing monitoring system for deployment in Industry 4.0 environments(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2022-06-06) Higinio de Jesús, Miguel Ángel; AHUETT GARZA, HORACIO; 120725; Ahuett Garza, Horacio; tolmquevedo/mscuervo; Orta Castañon, Pedro Antonio; Urbina Coronado, Pedro Daniel; School of Engineering and Sciences; Campus MonterreyNowadays, the use of augmented reality (AR) has increased significantly in Industry 4.0 applications, it enables operators to visualize digital information over the physical world. The AR world offers access to important information, real-time monitoring, support and training for operators and interaction with 3D objects. The main objective of this work is to develop an AR interface for manufacturing monitoring of two processes and display setup instructions of a 3D printer. The first process is a fused deposition modeling 3D printing, and the second process is the inspection of the 3D printed parts. The AR interface will be displayed on Microsoft HoloLens 2 to use hand gestures recognition as input to perform an action. However, it can also be used on mobile devices. This work will allow to access and visualize data stored in the Cloud, inside and outside of a manufacturing cell. To achieve this work will be integrated different tools in Unity software such as Vuforia, Mixed Reality Toolkit, Apps Script and Visual Studio to solve the technical challenges of AR.
- Towards a digital twin by merging discrete event simulations, augmented reality and the internet of things(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2020-06-15) Valdivia Puga, José Abraham; URBINA CORONADO, PEDRO DANIEL; 298324; Urbina Coronado, Pedro Daniel; ilquio, emipsanchez; Ahuetl Garza, Horacio; Orta Castañón, Pedro Antonio; Escuela de Ingeniería y Ciencias; Campus MonterreyThis work presents the creation and implementation of an augmented reality system to a partial digital twin for a manufacturing process through the application of discrete event simulations, IoT tools and communication protocols in an industrial environment through a mobile app presentation. This approach will take a non-connected manufacturing process and adapt it to a smart factory environment creating an intercommunicated DES system with IoT and augmented reality capabilities. This approach was achieved using a real study case which consists in a machine generating items from a percentage of the input material while the rest of the material is stored in a recovery chamber to use it again in another item creation. This process was used as an example to create a partial digital twin and implement all the tools mentioned before. This work will allow to know all the process parameters, data related to the process like cycle time, number of pieces, time per process status, etc., this information will be used to create a system in which a real-time visualization of the process and its data can be performed through the use of augmented reality tools achieved by Unity 3D software. This approach will help to create a visualization for the partial digital twin, its process and results in a real context and even allow the user to modify its conditions before their implementation through a user interface, allowing to create an infrastructure that support different scenarios, process optimizations, and know possible future conditions.
