Human-Centered Adaptive Assistance Systems for the Shop Floor

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Human-Technology Interaction

Abstract

Most of today’s assistance systems for the shop floor do not consistently follow a human-centered design approach. An explicit modeling of concepts for instructions, users and adaptations is required when aiming for a holistic approach. Therefore, we first define a morphological box to capture design alternatives for adaptive functionalities. Afterwards, a reference architecture is presented, consisting of several building blocks that implement an adaptation loop to continuously adapt the provided assistance and the system behavior to the current user. A selection of algorithms to realize adaptive behavior concludes our contribution. Following a human-centered design approach, three exemplary scenarios for assistance on the shop floor demonstrate the application of our approach.
