Datainsamling och analys av serieproduktionssystem genom att kombinera video- och persondatorteknik

Other conference contribution, 1994

This was the first attempt to publish the result of our research and development work regarding a self-developed method to synchronise a video recorder and personal computer. Which in turn gave birth to an extensive register of video-registration that still are saved at Chalmers University of Technology (this register’s existence has not been resolved after Engström’s retirement, the registrations have among other things included personal agreements with the people video-recorded) (we got the opportunity to video-record the assembly work at the Volvo Uddevalla plant, which resulted in a bewildering amount of VHS-tapes that rather obviously needed our attention in order to be evaluated) (this was the reason for this particular research and development work).

The method in question has thereafter (more or less been) nicked by other scientists, which who we have cooperated at Lindholmen Utveckling in Gothenburg. Who has constructed a digitalised version of this method, our own self-developed equipment comprised usage of VHS-tapes (see some of the other publications registered in Chalmers Public Library CPL).
