增强现实（AR）应用为物联网行业的性能提升开辟了创新途径。它可以通过提供有关工业环境的有价值信息来增强用户对真实世界的感知，并将视觉虚拟信息提供到头戴式设备（HMD）上。这些信息对于维护人员快速检测异常情况、减少无意义的例行工作和促进预防性维护活动非常重要。由于气味是由低浓度的挥发性化合物组成的，因此它们可以用于基于嗅觉的识别。本文概述了基于嗅觉的AR系统的开发，以帮助使用气味识别维护问题。该原型由三个部分组成：电子鼻，数据库和与Microsoft HoloLens集成的AR应用程序。在诊断气味之后，数据通过本地网络无线发送到用户佩戴的HMD。为了验证该技术，使用了四种气味，包括机油，防晒霜，医用酒精和香水，以记录行为并证明该过程的可重复性。所提出的技术结合了采样方法，清洁过程和统计分析，可以进一步仔细检查，以更好地增强气味进行诊断。
Augmented reality (AR) applications have opened innovative ways for performance improvement in the IoT industry. It can enhance user perception of the real-world by providing valuable information about an industrial environment and provide visual virtual information onto a head-mounted device (HMD). Such information is important for maintainers to quickly detect abnormalities, reduce nugatory routines and facilitate preventive maintenance activities. Since odors are made up of volatile compounds at low concentration, they can be used for olfactory-based identification. The article outlines the development of an olfactory-based AR system to help with the identification of maintenance issues using smell. The prototype comprises of three components: an electronic nose, a database and an AR application integrated with Microsoft HoloLens. After diagnosing an odor, the data is sent wirelessly through a local network to the HMD worn by the user. To validate the technology, four odors have been used, including engine oil, sun lotion, medical alcohol and perfume, to record behaviors and demonstrate the repeatability of the process. The presented technology incorporates sampling methods, cleaning processes and statistical analysis that can be further scrutinized to allow better smell augmentation for diagnosis.
