AUGMENTED REALITY VISUALIZATION OF DETECTED DEFECTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240282068 titled 'AUGMENTED REALITY VISUALIZATION OF DETECTED DEFECTS

The patent application describes a defect visualization system that utilizes an augmented reality viewing device to display defects on a part in alignment with their actual positions.

  • The system includes an augmented reality viewing device with a display.
  • A visualization module receives defect data and determines the device's position in relation to the part.
  • Display objects are generated, with each object corresponding to a specific defect on the part.
  • The display objects are presented on the display in alignment with the defects on the part.

Potential Applications: - Quality control in manufacturing processes - Maintenance and inspection of machinery and equipment - Training and education in industrial settings

Problems Solved: - Enhances visualization of defects for easier identification and analysis - Improves accuracy and efficiency in defect detection processes

Benefits: - Streamlines defect visualization and analysis - Increases productivity and accuracy in quality control processes - Enhances training and educational experiences in industrial settings

Commercial Applications: Title: "Augmented Reality Defect Visualization System for Industrial Applications" This technology can be used in industries such as manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and construction for quality control, maintenance, and training purposes. It has the potential to improve efficiency and accuracy in defect detection processes, leading to cost savings and enhanced productivity.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the defect visualization system improve accuracy in defect detection processes? 2. What are the potential cost-saving benefits of implementing this technology in industrial settings?


Original Abstract Submitted

a defect visualization system includes an augmented reality viewing device including a display, and a visualization module configured to receive defect data representative of the defects on the part, determine a position of the augmented reality viewing device in relation to the part, generate one or more display objects, wherein each display object of the display objects corresponds to a respective defect of the defects, and present the display objects on the display so that the display objects appear in alignment with the defects on the part.
