Abstract [en]

The rise of the new industrial era has brought about the need for adopting new technologies, digitization, automation, and improving the industrial internet of things. With the introduction of Industry 4.0, there have been a lot of changes that transformed the way of understanding how technologies have evolved and helped to improve productivity in various sectors. Through this thesis, we try to discuss how Augmented Reality (AR), which is one the main pillar of Industry 4.0 plays a vital role in industrial innovation and development. It is important to simplify the execution of logistics operations and make them more reliable where human resources are involved to decrease the error rate and decision-making time. The report provides information about the technologies that are currently used in the logistic industries such as barcode and RFID. A brief description of AR components, barriers, and its applications are discussed in the theoretical background. It follows a case study to understand common problem areas in the production system and find out how AR can improve these conditions by comparing them with data gathered from literature and interviews conducted. The thesis was performed in collaboration with one of the main logistic firms particularly focusing on the topic “Investigating the Implementation of Augmented Reality in Logistics”. This report will help to find out the critical problems that are present in the current processes and how augmented reality can help the industries to improve their system.
