A brief note on building augmented reality models for scientific visualization

Mrudang Mathur et al.

Summary: Augmented reality has been widely used in the video game industry, but its application in scientific visualization is still limited. To address this issue, the authors propose a novel visualization pipeline that enables scientists to create and render AR models. The pipeline is applicable to data represented through meshed surfaces, and utilizes open-source software packages ParaView and Blender. The authors provide python scripts to automate the process, making it accessible for researchers and educators to create and render AR models for their own purposes.

Mechanical disassembly sequence planning for end-of-life products to maximize recyclability

Anil Kumar Gulivindala et al.

Summary: Tremendous changes in the medical sector due to COVID-19 have led to increased usage of electronic devices for self-diagnosis and treatment through telemedicine. However, the lack of a suitable strategy for managing these devices after they reach their end-of-life has resulted in them being dumped in landfills or subjected to open combustion. Improper treatment of materials in these devices can lead to harmful cancers and environmental burden. This research proposes an environmental risk reduction model to manage e-waste in the medical sector, categorizing materials for treatment and disassembling parts with high eco-toxic and low human toxic materials. The model has shown significant reductions in human and environmental toxicity compared to current e-waste management methods.

Artificial intelligence (AI) in augmented reality (AR)-assisted manufacturing applications: a review

Chandan K. Sahu et al.

Summary: Augmented reality (AR) is valuable in manufacturing for tasks like assembly and maintenance, but current strategies rely on traditional non-AI methods. The incorporation of AI strategies like deep learning can greatly enhance classical AR methods. Future research should focus on exploring AI strategies for improving AR systems in broader scene variations.
