Exploring Co-located Collaborative Visual Programming of Industrial Robotic Workplaces in Handheld AR

Contemporary robotic workplaces are increasingly complex, involving multiple robots, machines, and digital services. Their setup and adaptation demand collaboration across domains, yet domain experts with essential process knowledge are typically non-programmers. Prior research in end-user robot programming has simplified individual task specification, but little is known about how multiple users coordinate and maintain shared awareness when programming together.
