DamokleS 4.0
(2019)
Dieser interne Bericht beschreibt die Zielsetzung, Durchführung und Auswertung des Projektes Damokles 4.0. Das Projekt zielt darauf ab, neue, digitale Technologien in die Schwerindustrie einzuführen um Produktionsprozesse zu modernisieren. Unter Einsatz neuer Technologien, insbesondere mobiler Geräte, soll ein cyberphyiskalisches System (CPS) eine kontextbasierte und künstlich intelligente Unterstützung der Mitarbeiter in den Bereichen der Schwerindustrie ermöglichen. Hierzu werden typische Anwendungsfälle und die damit verbundenen Szenarien zur Unterstützung der Mitarbeiter auf Basis von neuen, flexiblen, adaptiven und mobilen Technologien, wie Augmented Reality und künstlicher Intelligenz, modelliert. Um den Prototypen einer AR-Anwendung und einer kamerabasierte Personenverfolgung zu entwickeln, hat die Hochschule Ruhr West im kleinen Technikum am Campus Bottrop eine entsprechende industrielle Umgebung simuliert. Die Projektergebnisse zeigen die Anwendbarkeit der vorgeschlagenen Softwareansätze und die Ergebnisse einer Untersuchung der psychologischen Einflüsse auf die Mitarbeiter.
Digital transformation is a process of digitizing the working and living environment in which people are at the center of digitization. In this paper, we present a personas-based guideline for system developers on how the humanization of digital transformation integrates into the design process. The proposed guideline uses the positive personas from the beginning as a basis for the transformation of the working environment into the digital form. We used the literature research as a preliminary study for the process of wellbeing-driven digital transformation design, consisting of questions for structuring the required information in the positive personas as well as a potential method that could be integrated into the wellbeing-based design process.
Why Should the Q-method Be Integrated Into the Design Science Research? A Systematic Mapping Study
(2019)
The Q-method has been utilized over time in various areas, including information systems. In this study, we used a systematic mapping to illustrate how the Q-method was applied within Information Systems (IS) community and proposing towards integration of Q-method into the Design Sciences Research (DSR) process as a tool for future research DSR-based IS studies. In this mapping study, we collected peer-reviewed journals from Basket-of-Eight journals and the digital library of the Association for Information Systems (AIS). Then we grouped the publications according to the process of DSR, and different variables for preparing Q-method from IS publications. We found that the potential of the Q-methodology can be used to support each main research stage of DSR processes and can serve as the useful tool to evaluate a system in the IS topic of system analysis and design
The virtual classroom continues to grow, but it is becoming more and more the norm, and it is fundamentally different from the vocational students at the Indonesian university. With the promised benefits of the virtual classroom, many challenges and difficulties come in the implementation. Although there are already successful design principles for virtual classrooms that support organizations in overcoming the challenges, the approach to implementing the design principles of virtual classroom at the vocational higher education in Indonesia is still lacking. In this study, we aim to answer the research gap and used the design sciences research by interviewing the lecturers to design the solutions. The proposed design approaches were implemented in a course and evaluated with students from two different groups. Overall, the evaluation of the proposed approaches shows1 significant results as an indicator of the benefits of the implementation of a virtual classroom for vocational students in Indonesia.
We are “not” too (young/old) to collaborate: Prominent Key Barriers to Intergenerational Innovation
(2019)
In this study, we analyzed the barriers to technology-supported intergenerational innovation to understand better how young and old can collaborate towards global innovations. Researchers in different disciplines have already identified various barriers to intergenerational collaboration. However, barriers are changing depending on the context of collaboration, and difficulties still exist to support intergenerational innovation in global settings. Therefore, we investigated the barriers that emerge when people work with someone decades older or younger. The results of our study have shown what barriers are influenced by age, what barriers exist only for senior and younger adults. The study theoretically contributes to deepening the Information Systems (IS) community's understanding of the barriers to intergenerational innovation that need to be considered when developing systems for global innovation
Das vorliegende Paper gibt einen Überblick über das Verhalten von modernen, autonom navigierenden Fahrzeugen in Baustellen. Dabei werden besondere Herausforderungen für die autonome Navigation im Baustellenbereich benannt. Außerdem wird ein Überblick über die Sensorausstattung und die Fahrerassistenzsysteme von modernen Fahrzeugen gegeben und es werden Technologien vorgestellt, die für eine Verbesserung der autonomen Navigation durch Baustellen genutzt werden können. Es wird ein Versuch durchgeführt, der aufzeigt, wie zuverlässig moderne Fahrzeuge durch Baustellensituationen navigieren können. Dabei werden Schwachstellen, wie bspw. die mangelnde Verfügbarkeit von Fahrerassistenzsystemen bei niedrigen Geschwindigkeiten, aufgedeckt.
RELEVANCE & RESEARCH QUESTION: Currently the effectiveness of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) systems as practice teaching methods are virtually uncharted. The proof that these systems can provide the same or better learning outcomes than a text instructed practical task could represent a significant benefit for educational activities. METHODS & DATA: To fathom the effectiveness, an experimental study with the three conditions (VR, AR and a real setup) were used to teach participant how to assemble a standard computer. Each condition was divided into two parts: part one in which participants were confronted with their specific scenario, part two in which participants had to go through a real practice after one week. The learning outcome was determined by the designation of hardware parts, a quiz that queried their function and the correct assembling of the components in addition to needed time. Apart from the mere performance, the acceptance of such application in academic context and difference in evaluation by men and women were of interest. RESULTS: Results concerning the Learning Outcome showed that participants from the VR condition outperformed those learned from the real setup ((M=10.0, SD=0.0) [virtual reality] vs. (M=8.95, SD=1.27) [control]). Furthermore, results from the assembling duration assessment demonstrated that VR Group Participants completed their tasks 6.62% faster than the control group. Regarding the identification of Hardware Parts, both groups scored a significant improvement during the post condition compared to the first test run, indicating a learning progress. However, due to the VR group achieving a better outcome in average answers and a more significant difference between the trials, the results indicate a better performance by participants assigned to the VR condition. ADDED VALUE: The results revealed that VR and AR systems could exceed text-based approach in terms of learning outcome performance. The effectiveness of the systems implicates a major benefit for the educational landscape, as learning content that is not realizable in terms of cost, distance or logistics could be designed as an immersive and engaging experience.
Relax yourself - Using Virtual Reality to enhance employees mental health and work performance
(2019)
This paper presents work-in-progress aiming to develop an actively adapting virtual reality (VR) relaxation application. Due to the immersive nature of VR technologies, people can escape from their real environment and get into a relaxing state. Goal of the application is to adapt to the users' physiological signals to foster the positive effect. Until now, a first version of the VR application was constructed and is currently evaluated in an experiment. Preliminary results of this study demonstrate that people appreciate the immersion into the virtual environment and escape from reality. Moreover, participants highlighted the option to adapt users' needs and preferences. Based on the final study data, the constructed application will be enhanced with regard to adoption and surrounding factors.
