Live Augmented Reality Training Environments (LARTE)

尽管最新的增强虚拟现实（AVR）和沉浸式环境技术在我们的个人生活中已经司空见惯，但它们只在特定的商业领域得到了应用。随着这些技术变得无处不在，用户对在工作场所使用的接受度甚至期望也在增加。服务环境目前还没有利用这些功能，但却面临着维护在役产品的挑战。当意外的产品故障发生，需要部署新的流程和快速学习技能时，这一点尤其困难。该项目将调查和挑战传统培训和学习环境和方法的有效性，创造新的可配置动态环境，这将改变我们培训和发展员工的方式。通过监控用户行为并考虑个人学习概况，这些环境希望释放存储在PLM（产品生命周期管理）系统中的数据的价值，以丰富有关产品组件和配置要求的现有信息的虚拟培训环境。通过专注于特殊事件的有效培训，LARTE将证明有能力创建支持学习不常见任务的培训环境，这些任务可以成为普通的学习环境，以适应未来大规模生产中不断增加的定制。该项目将诺丁汉大学的人为因素研究技能与HoloVis International的可视化技术专长以及捷豹路虎制造和服务环境中的广泛数据和用例提供结合在一起。

The latest augmented virtual reality (AVR) and immersive environment technologies are being implemented only in select business areas, despite being commonplace in our personal lives. As these technologies become ubiquitous, user acceptance and even expectation for use in the workplace increases. Service environments do not currently utilise such capabilities, yet are faced with the challenge of maintaining in-service products. This is particularly difficult when unexpected product failures occur that demand new processes to be deployed, and skills to be learnt, rapidly. This project will investigate and challenge the effectiveness of traditional training and learning environments and methodologies, creating new configurable - dynamic environments that will transform the way we train and develop staff. By monitoring user behaviour and considering individual learning profiles these environments look to unleash the value of data stored in PLM (product lifecycle management) systems to enrich virtual training environments with existing information about product components and configuration requirements. By focusing on efficacious training for exceptional events, LARTE will prove out the ability to create training environments that support the learning of infrequent tasks which could become commonplace learning environments to accomodate increasing customisation in future widescale manufacture. The project brings together the human factors research skills of University of Nottingham with the visualisation technology expertise of HoloVis International and the extensive data and use case provision within manufactiring and service environments of Jaguar Land Rover.
