Robotstudio runs oculus1/3/2023 ![]() ![]() This effect is mainly supported by a growing Internet bandwidth and an increasing number of connected devices, resulting in the rise of Cloud Computing and Internet of Things (IoT). The rapid evolution of overlapping technologies is introducing revolutionary paradigms in application level engineering. Industrial automation needs to establish new ways to exploit and integrate emerging technologies and further improve efficiency in a cost-effective manner. New trends, such as cloud manufacturing, intelligent flexible production, and organic human–machine co-existence in factories, have led to a new wave of automation science and research. ![]() Today, flexible cells perform complex assembly tasks in a routinely fashion. Robotics has grown into a mainstream industrial application. Use cases are provided to illustrate the usability of the platform. This paper provides an overview of the industrial requirements behind high-fidelity virtual collaboration and demonstrates how the VirCA platform meets these requirements. VirCA offers functions for the high-level interoperability of heterogeneous components in a wide range of domains, spanning from research & development, through remote education to orchestration and management of industrial processes in manufacturing applications. The VirCA (Virtual Collaboration Arena) platform is a software framework that supports various means of collaboration through the use of 3D augmented/virtual reality as a communication medium. ![]() On the other hand, such platforms are difficult to implement in an engineering perspective, as they are required to provide reliable, standard interfaces towards both robotic components and human operators. Virtual Reality (VR) collaboration environments offer a solution by enabling high fidelity testing and training of complex manufacturing systems. In some cases, components are located at different sites, making the orchestration of the whole system even more difficult. Optimization of assembly and training of staff requires a series of demo installations and excessive use of costly operational resources. Modern manufacturing systems are often composed of a variety of highly customized units and specifically designed manufacturing cells. ![]()
