Utilisation of a Hybrid Approach for Immersive Industrial Process Control Visualisation


Utilisation of a Hybrid Approach for Immersive Industrial Process Control Visualisation

Skripcak, T.; Tanuska, P.; Schmeißer, N.

The objective of this paper is to present a proposal of hybrid system architecture for industrial process control visualisation. Leveraging of interoperability standard protocols for industrial automation, it is possible to create process agnostic visualisations. An application of this approach will lead to a hybrid system, which provides HMI (Human Machine Interface) layer for simulation, as well as real-world based industrial processes. An immersive 3-D visualisation is examined for the purpose of complex real-time process variables exploration. Reasonable 3-D visualisation types for industrial process HMI are identified. The idea is to create an immersive virtual environment for displaying industrial process related information, in order to help human operators to understand observed system behaviour and support them in the decision making process.
