A Real-Time Distance Measurement System for a Digital Twin Using Mixed Reality Goggles release_flp4jm7dmney5azzgjfoy7cbim

Abstract

This paper presents a new system architecture for controlling industrial devices using Mixed Reality (MR) applications and a new method based upon them for measuring the distance between real and virtual points. The research has been carried out using a physical robot and its Digital Twin (DT). The possibility of controlling them using gestures recognized by Mixed Reality goggles has been presented. The extension of the robot's environment with a 3D model capable of following its movements and positions was also analyzed. The system was supervised by an industrial Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) serving as an end point for the data sent by the goggles and controlling the movements of the real robot by activating the corresponding control. The results of the preliminary measurements presented here concerned the responsiveness of the system and showing the influence of system parameters in the accuracy of distance estimation between measured points.
