Abstract

The paper reports about the result of a focus group study, which volunteers worked with the Microsoft HoloLens on an assembly task. In this AR scenario, virtual 3D models, annotations, and text are used to convey assembly instructions. All physical parts of the assembly were tracked, thus, their position and orientation known, which facilitates to align virtual objects with a 3D model. In this study, we asked a group of mechanical engineering students whether they consider the HoloLens as an adequate device to convey assembly information. The students were selected from a machine design course, in which topics such as component design and manufacturing are addresses. The students were asked to work with the HoloLens on a short assembly task and to complete a questionnaire to measure their attitude. The results are inconclusive and divide the group into advocates and objectors.
