Abstract

Industry 4.0 summarizes all technologies, trends and developments which serve to advance production plants. As the ICT industry acts as a major enabler, industry 4.0 is often perceived as computer engineered production, only. Besides this rather technocratic viewpoint of industry 4.0, a human-centred view is continuously emerging. Many experts expect the human knowledge worker to play a major role in so-called smart factories. Supporting human workers in production through providing them with decision-relevant information and knowledge via innovative end devices including wearables and head mounted displays is a central topic of research. This paper outlines feasible ICT-solutions for future production workers in the four use cases, personalized augmented operator, worker-centric knowledge sharing and management, self-learning manufacturing workplaces and in-situ mobile learning in the production.
