Electrical equipment maintenance system with elements of augmented reality technology

Abstract

Abstract Any industrial enterprise serves a significant fleet of electrical equipment. Equipment servicing takes place in various ways: according to the schedule and without it, by direct and indirect methods, in manual and automated mode, with or without the involvement of specialists, etc. Timely maintenance prolongs the life of electrical equipment. So technical maintenance is indirectly related to the efficiency of production. Today there are many different technologies that simplify the process of maintenance of electrical equipment. One of these technologies is augmented reality technology. The existing practice of application of augmented reality technology shows that the one of the main difficulty faced by the enterprise is the lack of unified solutions and software modules. As a rule, the electrical equipment maintenance system is developed specifically for each type of equipment; its software modules and components are unique. This article describes the approach of developing a unified module of augmented reality technology for servicing electrical equipment.
