Mixed Reality (MR) is een begrip binnen de industriële digitalisering en digitale transformatie & industrie 4.0/5.0.
Definitie
Mixed Reality (MR) combineert elementen van Virtual Reality en Augmented Reality door digitale objecten te plaatsen in de fysieke wereld waar ze kunnen interacteren met echte objecten. Gebruikers kunnen digitale en fysieke elementen tegelijkertijd manipuleren.
Kenmerken
- Physical-digital fusion: Seamless integration van virtual objects met real environment
- Spatial mapping: Real-time 3D scanning van physical surroundings
- Object occlusion: Digital objects correctly hidden behind physical objects
- Real-time interaction: Simultaneous manipulation van physical en virtual elements
- Persistent holograms: Digital objects remain anchored to physical locations
- Hand tracking: Natural gesture control voor object manipulation
- Voice commands: Speech recognition voor hands-free operation
- Collaborative spaces: Multiple users sharing same mixed reality environment
- Environmental understanding: AI recognition van surfaces, objects, spatial relationships
Toepassing
Assembly guidance:
- Step-by-step instructions: 3D holographic assembly guides overlaid on workpiece
- Component identification: Digital labels identifying parts en tools
- Quality checkpoints: Virtual inspection points with pass/fail indicators
- Work instruction overlay: Procedures displayed contextually on equipment
Maintenance applications:
- Equipment visualization: See-through views van machine internals
