    Usability of augmented reality assisted commissioning of industrial robot programs
    This paper analyses the usability of Augmented Reality (AR) in the commissioning and programming of industrial robots. Conducting two individual studies with a total of 31 participants we analysed the three dimensions of usability: effectiveness, efficiency, and user satisfaction by comparing our developed AR system with the conventional Teach-In programming method during the commissioning and modification of offline created robot programs. The results indicate that, while less accurate and hence effective, the AR system is more efficient and has a higher user satisfaction. Beyond that a posture analysis indicates that during a timeframe of 30 min the additional weight of the AR device does not significantly worsen the posture of a worker. Complemented by the positive result of the System Usability Score (SUS) that rates the analysed AR system with a good usability, the overall results indicate that while still limited by its achievable accuracy AR is an intuitive medium to conduct robot programming and commissioning.

    Feasibility of Augmented Reality in the Scope of Commission of Industrial Robot Plants
    This paper analyses the synergetic potential of Augmented Reality (AR) and offline programming (OLP) in the commission of industrial robots. We discuss that AR could utilise existing programming paradigms present in the OLP to simplify the online commission in manufacturing plants with its ability to freely combine digital and real content. Focussing on the complementary use of AR and OLP a theoretically promising use case is derived. The use case is implemented in a simplified mock-up and a user study is conducted to practicably evaluate the feasibility. Ten participants commissioned an offline created program using the developed AR application. As nine out of ten participants could achieve a valid commission by using the developed AR application, the study indicates the feasibility of the presented use case.
