Comparing Effectiveness of Paper Based and Augmented Reality Instructions for Manual Assembly and Training Tasks

Augmented Reality (AR) systems have seen a rapid adaptation in both training and virtual assembly instructions. AR assist the operator by enhancing user perception of reality, reducing defects, lead-time. However, there is significant lack existing literature to compare conventional work The aim this research provide an empirical evidence comparing task completion time, number errors, workload index system usability paper-based For purpose, we designed experiment where participants use paper based instructions assemble planetary gearbox. was assessed using NASA-TLX System Usability Scale (SUS) tests, which allowed further analysis descriptive statistics. Moreover, qualitative interview at end gave more insights about participant’s overall experience.
