Abstract

An apparatus includes a cable having two ends and at least two object markers coupled to the cable configured to enable augmented reality (AR) detection of each end of the cable among a plurality of cables. A computer-implemented method using augmented reality (AR) technology includes selecting a cable of interest and identifying an object marker positioned toward a first end of the cable of interest. The method also includes storing the object marker, scanning a plurality of cables, and identifying a second end of the cable of interest based an instance of the object marker positioned toward the second end of the cable of interest. A computer program product for detecting ends of cables using augmented reality (AR) technology includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions are executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform the foregoing method.
