Opportunities and Limitations of Mixed Reality Holograms in Industrial Robotics

Abstract: This paper introduces two case studies combining the field of industrial robotics with Mixed Reality (MR). The goal of those case studies is to get a better understanding of how MR can be useful and what are the limitations. The first case study describes an approach to visualize the digital twin of a robot arm. The second case study aims at facilitating the commissioning of industrial robots. Furthermore, this paper reports the experiences gained by implementing those two scenarios and discusses the limitations.
