Designing Augmented Reality Workflows for Care Specific Tasks

Abstract

Augmented Reality Head Mounted Devices have the potential to provide digital information to people while they are working. Besides other advantages, this enables the provision workers with instructions how to carry out certain tasks both for training and while they are working on the task. While using HMDs for the purposes has been shown to be beneficial in practice, the creation and adaptation of instructions and corresponding workflows is still a manual, time-consuming task. In this paper, we present a tool that enables the modelling and HMD specific configuration of such workflows, and that automatically instantiates these workflows on HMDs. This provides opportunities for creating user-specific workflows on HMDs and to adapt existing workflows to the needs of users. We illustrate the potential of our solution by the example of workflows in care.
