"Augmented Reality" For the Assembly Line

Posted by CowboyNeal on Saturday July 12, 2003 @06:01AM from the cyborg-workers dept.

silkySlim writes "EETimes has a short article about a combination data goggles and earpiece device to replace big manuals and reduce training time for assembly line workers. 'In one possible scenario, a technician with data goggles bends over the engine block of a luxury car and removes the covering. He is receiving instructions through an ear piece telling him what to do next while his data goggles mark the screws and bolts on which he must next place his tool.' Apparently, it's already in use by several automotive companies. There's some additional papers also available."

either:

A) Fuck her

B) Demand her give me the damn remote immediately
so I can turn springer or whatever reality based
shit she's watching off, then fuck her.
