Typical applications are engineering and simulations, above all watch assembly.
The system will be linked to a CAD system. In phase one of this project, a system was developed which allows several users to interact in realtime by virtue of a common networked virtual environment and to manipulate object in virtual space. This gives the participants greater freedom than in a conventional videoconference. Instead of a real advisor, an autonomous virtual advisor will coach the participants in simple tasks. The result will be shown as a demonstrator on a PC with an Internet connection.
