Abstract
This industrial paper introduces the work done within the
WEKIT - Wearable Experience for Knowledge Intensive
Training - project. WEKIT is a three years project funded
by the European Commission under the H2020 programme. It
aims at creating an AR-based technological platform and
an industry-focused learning methodology, then to widely
share its methods and research findings and make them
part of a repertoire of Europe's communities in
Technology- Enhanced Learning (e.g. content developers,
trainers) and end-users (e.g. in Industries). WEKIT
exploits Augmented training in situ with live expert
guidance capturing tacit learning experience with
Wearable Technology (WT) and re-enactment of the expert
with Augmented Reality (AR). The project is supported by
three Industrial Cases: (1) Aircraft maintenance:
exploiting AR and WT for inspection, decision making and
safety; (2) Healthcare: exploiting AR and WT for
improving innovation in technology and responsibility in
healthcare applications and medical imaging; (3) Space:
exploiting AR and WT for astronauts training and for
supporting the assembly, integration and test of payloads
and sub-systems. In this paper, we will focus on the
space Industrial case.
