Abstract

In recent years, many global manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW have been using augmented reality technology to spread it to various fields such as assembly process, after-sales service, sales stores, and consumer manuals. In this study, the application status of innovation in manufacturing using industrial augmented reality was identified, and the possibility of combining existing ERP and augmented reality was analyzed based on this. In addition, it was empirically analyzed that the selection of a dedicated content development engine is the most important factor in development productivity in the development of industrial augmented reality content. The same content developed with Unity3d was redeveloped with Vuforia Studio, and as a result of comparative analysis of development man-hours by field, the development lead time was shortened by 8 times. This study proves productivity by actually developing industrial augmented reality contents, and it is a study with a difference that is difficult to implement in practice.

최근 수년 동안 벤츠, BMW등 많은 글로벌 제조업체는 증강현실 활용범위를 조립공정, AS, 전시장, 소비자 매뉴얼등 다양한 분야로 확산시키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 산업용 증강현실을 활용한 제조업의 혁신 프로세스 적용 현황을 파악하고, 이를 바탕으로 기존 ERP와 산업용 증강현실의 접목 가능성을 분석하였다. 또한, 산업용 증강현실 콘텐츠 개발에 있어서 전용 콘텐츠 개발 엔진의 선택이 개발 생산성에 가장 중요한 요인임을 실증적으로 분석하였다. 유니티3D로 개발한 동일 콘텐츠를 뷰포리아 스튜디오로 재개발하여 비교 분석한 결과, 개발 납기를 8배 빠르게 줄여주었다. 본 연구는 산업용 증강현실 콘텐츠를 2가지 엔진으로 실제 개발하여 직접적으로 생산성을 입증하는, 실제 구현하기 어려운 차별성을 가진 연구로써 유사 적용 산업분야의 많은 개발자에게 효율적인 개발도구 선택의 가이드가 될 것이다.
