Sammanfattning
The purpose of the thesis was to investigate the improvement potential regarding
the commissioning process of projection based support systems, which guides operators
in manual assembly. A case system was used as a representation of this kind
of technology. To improve the commissioning process, a virtual commissioning solution
was developed, moving parts of the current commissioning process to a digital
preparation stage. The investigation ended in a comparison between the current
commissioning and the virtual commissioning. To investigate the commissioning,
design science research was mainly used to develop a software solution, called an
artifact in the method. In a laboratory experiment, the artifact aided virtual commissioning
was compared to the current commissioning to assess its potential improvement
of the commissioning process. From the development and experiment,
virtual commissioning showed promising potential in parts where the connectivity of
the system, in other words interoperability was high. The virtual commissioning did
however not reach the full desired level of functionality, due to interoperability isolation
of some software parts. The results suggested that using virtual commissioning
outside the field of robotics to improve the commissioning of other technologies is
viable. Improvement potential in this field is however dependent on software factors
and interoperability level in the equipment used.
