Towards Ubiquitous Maintenance – Defining Invocation of Plant Maintenance Agents in Real Workspace by Spatial Programming

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 3392))

Abstract

Recent progress of VR (Virtual Reality) technologies makes it possible to realize the VR space that is synchronized with the real space. We can hereby build virtual workspace through which a worker in real workspace can automatically acquire and invoke appropriate plant maintenance agents. We propose spatial programming which is a manner of VR programming technique, locating various place-dependent agents and web information in VR space, and also describe the interface between agent world and real workspace as an application of spatial programming, towards ubiquitous maintenance.
