Abstract
In a warehouse, 60% of the costs are attributed to the picking work, which involves collecting products from specific locations on shelves. Improving work efficiency at the picking stage is the most important issue in logistics. Augmented reality (AR) technology is an obvious solution for intuitive instruction and presentation, but it does not lend itself to practical use. In this study, we will analyze the practical barriers of AR in the warehouse. We developed an AR picking system for commercial head mounted displays (HMDs) to investigate practical barriers to using them in picking, improve the HMDs through experiments, and evaluate the improvements.
