The invention relates to an augmented-reality system having a mobile apparatus for the context-dependent insertion of assembly instructions. The context-dependent insertion of assembly instructions with process-optimized allocation of the necessary work steps provides situation-related support by for work sequences.

Augmented-reality system for situation-related support of the interaction between a user and an engineering apparatus

The invention relates to a system and a method for documentation processing, in particular for technical and industrial applications, with storage means () for storing documentation data (I. . . In) on several levels (E. . . Em) and with acquisition means () for acquiring real information (R), with access means for accessing the documentation data (I. . . In) and with evaluation means (A) for evaluating the real information (R) and for selecting the stored documentation data in dependence on the real information (R). As a result, for example for service applications in situ, i.e. for example the location of an automation system, structured and selective access to the documentation data is made possible by the integration of the documentation data (I. . . In) as augmented reality.

System and method for documentation processing with multi-layered structuring of information

A system and method for operating and monitoring, in particular, an automation system and/or a production machine and/or machine tool. The visual field () of a user () directed onto at least one display () is recorded and an item of speech information () of the user () is evaluated at least intermittently, such that specifically predefined information data, which is linked to the recorded visual field () and to the recorded speech information, is depicted on the display (). The predefined information data is displayed in accordance with the speech information () that is given by the user () and recognized by a speech recognition component () and in accordance with the recorded visual field (). This provides a hands-free operation of the system, machine and/or tool, and enables the user to navigate in an environment of augmented reality applications even when complex technical systems are involved.

System and method for eye tracking controlled speech processing

A system and method for object-oriented marking and assignment of information to selected technological components. For optimized support, particularly during maintenance of automation systems, a system is proposed for object-oriented marking and assignment of information to selected technological components for situation-based support of the interaction between a user and a technical device, particularly for technical and industrial application. The system includes storage means () for storing documentation data (I. . . In) and recording means () for recording real information (R), access means (D) for accessing the documentation data, evaluation means (A) for evaluating the real information and selecting the stored documentation data as a function of the real information, means for virtual marking of a technological component, and means for displaying additional information related to the technological component that is selected by the virtual marking.

System and method for object-oriented marking and associating information with selected technological components

The invention relates to an operating and observation system, especially for an automation system, which is formed by at least one first operating and observation system having extensive functionality and a multiplicity of further operating and observation tools having limited functionality. The first operating and observation system having the extensive functionality is designed to be mobile, thereby doing away with mobility restrictions.

System for operating and observing making use of mobile equipment

A system and a method for operating and monitoring, in particular, an automation system and/or a production machine or machine tool. The visual field () of a user () directed onto at least one display () is recorded. Speech information () from the user () is at least intermittently determined and a visual feedback signal is generated in response to a processing status regarding the determined speech information (). An improved speech interaction is thus obtained, in particular, in the field of augmented-reality applications and in complex technical plants.

Generating visual feedback signals for eye-tracking controlled speech processing

The invention relates to a system and a method for combined use of different types of display with system-controlled, context-dependent information display, having a mobile data processing apparatus and having a plurality of interaction devices which are operated in parallel by the mobile data processing apparatus for display and/or input, and having a higher-level system for monitoring the interaction devices such that at least one respectively suitable output display type is selected as a function of the input parameters.
