Evaluating ICT-Tools for Knowledge Sharing and Assembly Support

Paper in proceeding, 2014

This paper will through three industrial cases show the possibility to use ICT-tools in terms of QR-codes and movies for knowledge sharing and assembly support. Over 90 percent of industrial instructions are paper based with text and images showing instructions. New technologies make it possible to extend the instruction to a more easy to understand instructions, especially when I comes to complex tasks that are hard to explain in words or pictures. This paper will show how QR-codes could be used in order to solve this problem. Results shows that all the test persons thought that the movie instructions were better than the text and picture based ones, even though there were a lot of problems with Wi-Fi connections at the companies.
