Abstract(s)
O avanço tecnológico tem vindo a transformar os processos industriais, abrindo caminho para
a automatização de tarefas críticas, como a inspeção visual no controlo de qualidade. Este
trabalho insere-se neste contexto, ao explorar o potencial da Realidade Aumentada (RA)
como ferramenta de apoio à deteção de defeitos em embalagens plásticas, contribuindo
para práticas de sustentabilidade industrial. Desenvolvido em colaboração com a empresa
Neutroplast, no âmbito do projeto Sustainable Plastics, o protótipo proposto integra alertas
multimodais e modos de validação ajustáveis, com vista à automatização do processo
de inspeção. A aplicação foi concebida para ser utilizada com óculos de RA, promovendo
uma interação intuitiva e adaptada ao contexto industrial. A avaliação envolveu vinte e um
participantes e combinou métodos quantitativos e qualitativos. Os resultados revelam uma
aceitação positiva, com destaque para a clareza dos alertas e a simplicidade da interação.
Foram igualmente apontadas limitações ao nível do conforto visual e da consistência da
experiência entre diferentes formas de interação. No conjunto, os dados confirmam o potencial
da abordagem proposta e evidenciam oportunidades de melhoria para futuras versões
do protótipo.
Technological advances have been transforming industrial processes, paving the way for the automation of critical tasks such as visual inspection in quality control. This work fits into this context by exploring the potential of Augmented Reality (AR) as a tool to support the detection of defects in plastic packaging, contributing to industrial sustainability practices. Developed in collaboration with the company Neutroplast, as part of the Sustainable Plastics project, the proposed prototype integrates multimodal alerts and adjustable validation modes, with a view to automating the inspection process. The application was designed to be used with AR glasses, promoting intuitive interaction adapted to the industrial context. The evaluation involved twenty-one participants and combined quantitative and qualitative methods. The results reveal positive acceptance, with emphasis on the clarity of the alerts and the simplicity of interaction. Limitations were also noted in terms of visual comfort and consistency of experience between different forms of interaction. Overall, the data confirm the potential of the proposed approach and highlight opportunities for improvement in future versions of the prototype.
