Virtual Reality Technology for Military and Industry Tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g Programs 329<br />

S<strong>in</strong>ce last few years CG technologies supports <strong>in</strong>dustry with another very powerful<br />

tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g toolkit <strong>in</strong> the form of Augmented Reality Instructions. ARI delivers<br />

computer generated ma<strong>in</strong>tenance and operational <strong>in</strong>formation on top of visible<br />

objects. See-through glasses project digitized models and <strong>in</strong>formation layered on<br />

top of the exist<strong>in</strong>g environment. Operators can <strong>in</strong>teract with equipment controls<br />

while service step-by-step <strong>in</strong>structions augment the user’s experience. <strong>Applications</strong><br />

and simulators can be designed to appear on the mobile devices such as electronic<br />

tablets or smartphones, replac<strong>in</strong>g pr<strong>in</strong>ted material with always current, best<br />

practice <strong>in</strong>structions. This solutions help to transform an employee with general<br />

understand<strong>in</strong>g of an environment or equipment <strong>in</strong>to the knowledge worker for the<br />

21st century. Fig. 1. presents an example of ARI project implemented for m<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />

equipment service and weekly ma<strong>in</strong>tenance.<br />
