AR-Based Inspection of Nuclear Power Plants
We developed an AR application for mobile devices that enables maintenance workers to better maintenance and decommissioning of nuclear power plants.
Our Final Result
Overview
Challenge
In order to improve the maintenance and decommissioning of nuclear power plants, workers needed an accurate and efficient way to see relevant information about pipes, pumps, and other equipment and hardware in the facility.
Solution
We created an AR application workers use on mobile devices. They are connected to sensors in the power plant, revealing relevant information about various parts of the facility.
Technologies
- BLE
- Vuforia
- Arduino
Impact
Maintenance can be done using AR. When looking at a specific part, for example, a welding part, the user can click on a label and see additional information, such as the reports of previous inspections.
