Abstract
Augmented Reality (AR) applications are increasingly being used in many different areas, such as architecture, healthcare, manufacturing, and education. With AR, virtual information is merged into the real world. The use of AR systems in manufacturing opens up new ways of providing information and is shaping a new form of interaction of employees. Employees can use AR systems through devices like glasses, smartphones, tablets, and projectors, which are using voice commands and gesture recognition. These features allow hands-free working in manufacturing and offer an attractive advantage of AR glasses and projectors. Despite the apparent advantages of AR, it is used little in industry beyond the prototype stage. This could be explained that so far, the value added doesn’t seem attractive enough. Other influences may be ergonomic aspects, usability, user experience, and acceptance. This paper offers a systematic literature research of evaluation criteria of AR systems published.
