The tool aims to overcome the current limitations by assisting the inspector in the data acquisition process using hand-held sensors. The study introduces a sensor guidance prototype applicable to various inspection scenarios prone to human error. Usability assessments reveal positive feedback on real-time guidance and an intuitive interface, though challenges in tracking accuracy and managing complex trajectories are identified, particularly with the Microsoft HoloLens 2. Testing on the Magic Leap 2 (ML2) showed sufficient position accuracy of 1.39 mm, suitable for mobile authoring and tracking of trajectories. While results are promising, further optimization in tracking, user interface (UI), and real-world validation is needed.enhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/AR Accuracy Analysis | Augmented Reality Authoring | Augmented Reality for Inspection | Inspection Assistance | Sensor Trajectory GuidanceTechnology::620: Engineering::620.1: Engineering Mechanics and Materials ScienceAugmented reality authoring for efficient inspections in green aviation: evaluating accuracy and usabilityConference Paperhttps://doi.org/10.15480/882.1543410.1007/978-3-031-93891-7_3610.15480/882.15434Conference Paper
