Abstract
:
While augmented reality enables us to attach images and information from virtual environment into the real world; technology and computer science enables us to go beyond our limits of visual perception through showing us the world with the information which was not there before. The aim of this research is to design a system that will enhance the awareness of the vocational education students over the topic of occupational health and safety. With the augmented reality system projected on the work surface, the students will be warned when they perform actions that pose a risk, needs caution and may result in accidents. As they are doing it, therefore, they will understand the faultiness of the actions again. In this work, augmented reality is chosen based on two advantages; students will be able to access the information needed, in this project warnings, without looking at directions other than the work surface and there exists lack of study in the topic of augmented reality in the field of industrial design. The research involves a literature review and two case studies in Konak Çınarlı Mesleki ve Teknik Anadolu Lisesi with high school and university students. A system is designed according to findings from these studies. As the result, students’ caution was got and the number of mistakes was decreased. This resulted in decrease in the number of occupational accidents, deaths and financial loss. The project may also become a new method of teaching occupational safety and operation of the machines.
