Completion of the HORMIGOBOTS project

The HORMIGOBOTS project, an acronym for the research and development of biomimetic-based solutions for the creation of flexible production environments adapted to the manufacture of small series with uncertain volumes of electric, plug-in hybrid and hydrogen-powered vehicles, is coming to an end.

It started in 2021 with the aim of researching and developing new intelligent and flexible production environments for the manufacture of components and systems for electric vehicles, through the use of autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and collaborative robots that mimic the social behavior of ants, virtual and augmented reality systems for decentralization in the management of factories and continuous monitoring based on artificial vision to improve safety, efficiency and quality (and therefore sustainability) of production environments.

 In this project, ARSOFT has developed Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality techniques to provide a solution to the training needs of new processes in the continuous evolution of the automotive sector and the monitoring of manufacturing plants through the creation of digital twins that show the status in real time in a simple and agile way, either on site or remotely.

HORMIGOBOTS is funded by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities and the European Union within the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.

Toward a more sustainable and connected mobility future

ARSOFT participates in the project "Process Innovation through Digital Twin for the Optimization and Automation of Vehicle and Component Manufacturing" within the Electric Vehicle Aid Line (PERTE VEC) 

In this project, ARSOFT is working on the design and development of new data collection and management processes for the different stages of electric vehicle manufacturing through the generation of digital twins. To this end, it is developing advanced algorithms for the execution of tasks through artificial intelligence, providing greater efficiency, automation and optimization of procedures, taking advantage of XR technologies (Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality).

This is a primary project that is part of the tractor project "Solutions to the New Electric Mobility Needs based on Sustainability and Connectivity Criteria", SoNNMESyC, with file number VEC-010000-2022-9. 

SoNNMESyC aims to transform mobility in freight and passenger transport by addressing the electrification of buses, semi-heavy-duty and light-duty vehicles. The proposal focuses on initiatives that span the entire electric and connected vehicle value chain, from battery manufacturing to powertrain and other systems such as smart charging, manufacturing automation, and augmented reality.

?The project involves companies in the sector present in the automotive value chain in eight autonomous communities. An investment of nearly 64 million euros is expected, with the creation of 600 direct jobs and 2,000 indirect jobs.

These projects are eligible for the line of aid for integral actions in the industrial chain of the electric and connected vehicle within the Strategic Project for the Recovery and Economic Transformation in the Electric and Connected Vehicle Sector (PERTE VEC), within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan (PRTR) financed by the European Union-Next Generation EU.

ARSOFT winner of the challenge "Virtual Reality Training" organized by the Renfe startup accelerator

ARSOFT has won the challenge "Virtual Reality Training" organized by Renfe's startup accelerator, whose objective is to develop a tool for train drivers in driving. 

 

In its commitment to Virtual Reality to make a quality leap in its training programs, Renfe has recognized ARSOFT as the winner of the Virtual Reality Training challenge of the V TrenLab Call, with 50,000 euros to develop the pilot of its project in Renfe's startup acceleration program. 

Real infrastructure environments and specific vehicles will be digitized to train situations and skills necessary to complement safety training for driving personnel. 

 

A virtual technology with a genuine impact 

The investment figures clearly reflect the growth and deployment of Virtual Reality and augmented reality in education. The estimated volume of the educational market in these two technologies is 300 billion dollars by 2032, according to a study by Sheer Analytics and Insights. And, in particular, the market linked to Virtual Reality applied to training is $142 billion by 2031, according to Transparency Market Research. 

But the impact is not only economic. For example, until now the training of operators depended on the system or methodology with which the training was delivered. All this has changed thanks to virtual reality, a technology through which ARSOFT has developed the EyeFlow authoring platform, which allows companies and professionals to work with augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality content in a simple, fast and sustainable way. 

In the context of the railway sector, virtual reality simulators can recreate routes, driving cabs or places such as train stations so that, in this way, train drivers can train in a safe environment their skills and abilities, as well as reproduce as many times as desired possible incidents such as accidents, fires, adverse weather conditions or breakdowns. In this sense, ARSOFT offers substantial advantages by improving the learning curve of the machinists, avoiding the use of real machinery and saving travel, which also means an improvement in the sustainability of the project. This proposal offers a self-evaluation capacity for a more autonomous training, in which the operators can have access to the training contents at any time from all types of devices. 

ARSOFT and Maxi Industries present results of phase 2 of the XRWorMs project

Both companies participated in a virtual demonstration workshop organized by FaCyL, the Automotive and Mobility cluster of Castilla y León, where they presented the results of the second phase of the XRWormMs Project.

 

A prototype machine alert system was developed based on wearable devices integrated with visualization and operator guidance systems using extended reality (XR).

In addition, an extra layer of cybersecurity has been implemented in the IIoT communication.

The Automotive and Mobility Cluster of Castilla y León, FaCyL, has presented to its partners the results of the second phase of the XRWormMs project, a proposal driven by ARsoft and Industrias Maxi, two of the companies that make up the cluster. This project is co-financed by the Ministry of Industry and Tourism through the line of support for innovative business clusters, in its call for proposals for 2023, as part of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.

The objective of this initiative is the simplification of industrial digital twins associated with machines, facilitating human-machine interaction. In this sense, it has been highlighted that the industrial sector is currently investing in the development of digital twins with the sensorization of its assets and the generation of IoT data. However, most of these developments do not involve workers as key actors in the process. This is where the work developed by ARsoft and Maxi Industries stands out.

 

Thanks to the machine status identification system included in the software tool developed in the first part of the project (and presented last April), operators can manage an industrial plant, a production line or individual machines in a simpler and more efficient way.

The second phase of the project has taken another step forward in the implementation of extended reality technology to connect machines with people. A prototype has been developed to respond to machine operation alerts, based on the use of smartwatches integrated with visualization and operator guidance systems using extended reality (XR). It has also implemented an additional layer of cybersecurity in IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) communications.

 

Demonstration Workshop

The managers of both companies demonstrated in this workshop how the developed prototype allows an operator to connect with the virtual twin through the extended reality (XR) visualization system. The participants of this workshop were able to test the operation of the system of alerts and operator guidance to resolve machine incidents, using smartwatches to receive such alerts and Hololens glasses to visualize the information and guidance processes. The aim is to facilitate the work of operators to improve predictive and corrective maintenance of machines.

 

The demonstration workshop held to present the results of phase 2 of the project was attended by around thirty professionals from the regional automotive and mobility ecosystem.

XRWorMs. Phase 2.

The XRWorMs Phase 2 project is co-funded by the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Tourism through the 2023 call for applications under the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.

In phase 1 of XRWorMs, a functional and scalable laboratory prototype has been created to integrate the current Digital Twin platforms with the use of XR technologies, so that operators can access easily understandable and accessible data of interest to them. It has therefore been possible to simplify the industrial Digital Twins associated with machinery, driven by a large amount of IoT data, through the implementation of a Machine State Identification system.

Based on the results obtained in Phase 1, it has been considered necessary to propose a Phase 2 in which workers are integrated as another actor of the Digital Twin, connecting machines, processes and people.

The main objective of the XRWorMs Phase 2 project is the creation of a prototype machine alert system based on wearable devices integrated with XR visualization and guidance systems, with the implementation of an additional layer of cybersecurity in IIoT communications.

IMPULSO Project. Phase 02

 

 

 

We continue with the IMPULSO project in this second phase, where we focus the consortium's experience in additive manufacturing in the industrial sector, and more specifically in the aerospace sector, for its application in the medical field.

The project focuses on the application of the best simulation and additive manufacturing techniques for the design and manufacture of surgical implants.

The main objective of the XRWorMs Phase 1 project is the research, development and prototyping, at laboratory level, of a software tool that allows operators to more easily control an industrial plant, production line or individual machines, through a state identification system, using Mixed Reality technology to interconnect machines with people.

 

IMPULSE Project

At ARSOFT we continue to advance in the IMPULSO project. In this project we are digitizing the different machining processes of a part to support the operator who needs it through mixed reality technologies.

In this project, we work hand in hand with our partners Sevilla Control, Cubicoff, the Andalusia Aerospace Aerospace business cluster and the Innovative Cybersecurity and Advanced Technologies Business Group.

What is the role that ARSOFT plays in this project?

The main contribution of ARSOFT is the use of Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality technologies for the virtualization of the machining process of metal parts manufactured by 3D printing.

To do this, at ARSOFT we have our own platform that allows us to digitize processes with XR technologies: EYEFLOW.

At ARSOFT we have launched a new version of EyeFlow Player, the platform that allows access to XR content, for Hololens Mixed Reality devices.

In this project, we have been able to verify, together with our partners at Sevilla Control, that the operators can use these glasses to ensure that they execute the process as defined, thus avoiding human errors and improving occupational safety.

In addition, the ability for the operator to record process information while performing tasks, simply by voice, is extremely useful and can improve process efficiency.

Once the developments were completed, one of the high-repetition machining processes for Sevilla Control was digitized with EyeFlow, aimed at providing support to the operators during the part machining process.

On the other hand, Grupo Sevilla Control presented a technical work instruction for the machining process on a Titanium part on which to generate the digitization of the process. For this, Sevilla Control has provided ARSOFT with the 3D models and the defined processes, for their digitization using the EyeFlow tool, and their visualization with the developed Mixed Reality tool.

ARSOFT's participation in IMPULSO is also key in the activities related to the integration of the different tools with the operational environment and with the digital twin of the machining to be developed in the project.

ARSOFT has worked on the development of the capacity to visualize the information extracted from the digital twin in the different XR and PC technologies. What has allowed to reproduce the visualization of IoT data through a smartphone or tablet in augmented reality, virtual reality devices, HoloLens for mixed reality and PC.

What is being the result?

The work developed by the ARSOFT team gives the user the option to navigate through the different menus of the EyeFlow Player application using voice commands. This functionality allows the operator not to have to use their hands to move forward or backward through the process. In this way, freeing him from this task, the operator has his hands free to manipulate any other tool.

All EYEFLOW functionality is now available in Mixed Reality glasses.

In addition to being able to review the design, or obtain step-by-step instructions for a process, the user is also allowed to view IoT elements as holograms such as specific values ??of assets associated with a machine, historical values, beacons... All these contents are easily generated with the EyeFlow Author platform. This is where the potential lies, since it is what allows investing in XR technologies (Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Mixed Reality) in a sustainable way.

For ARSOFT, the important thing is not that we say that we can provide companies with XR content for their processes with a sustainable investment, but rather that our clients and collaborators try it and see for themselves.

In this context, our colleagues from Sevilla Control tested the content positioned on the real environment to get feedback from the operators and the production manager, with satisfactory results that validate the use of Mixed Reality in industrial plants.

On the other hand, in relation to the digital twin, it is important to point out the optimization of the IoT module that ARSOFT has achieved from its content creation platform.

Thanks to projects such as IMPULSO financed by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Tourism of the Government of Spain, the European Union, the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan and the Innovative Business Associations Cluster, at ARSOFT we continue to innovate, continue to improve and continue to validate our solutions with large companies such as Sevilla Control, Cubicoff, the Andalusia Aerospace business cluster and the innovative cybersecurity and advanced technology business group.
