Purpose and goal
ARTISAN aim is to develop an innovative solution for knowledge transfer within the Swedish manufacturing industry by combining XR with agent-based AI. The system aims to enable passive knowledge transfer between operators without requiring direct interaction between expert and novice. By documenting expert knowledge via XR glasses and using AI to structure and organize this data, new employees can receive real-time guidance directly in their field of vision.
Expected effects and result
- Develop functional XR platform (TRL 6-7) tested in two industrial environments - Reduce documentation time by 40-60% and improve training efficiency by 20-30% - Increase documentation in the organization to enable more AI solutions. - Reduce error rates in complex tasks through AI-supported guidance - Create export potential for Swedish XR and AI technology solutions
Planned approach and implementation
Initially, industrial requirements are mapped and XR prototypes are developed in parallel with the AI agent architecture. Then, a web platform for knowledge management is created before the system is implemented and tested in two pilot environments - Hitachi Energys transformer manufacturing and Ekets Groups precision cutting. The development will have continuous feedback from industry partners. Uppsala Universitet is also researching new structures and platforms to integrate XR with AI.
