Innovative and effective training strategies are required to cope with fast-changing production environments and new manufacturing technologies. Virtual Reality (VR) offers new ways of on-the-job, on-demand, and off-premise training. A novel concept and evaluation system combining Gamification and VR practice for flexible assembly tasks is proposed in this paper and compared to existing works. It is based on directed acyclic graphs and a leveling system. The concept enables a learning speed which is adjustable to the users' pace and dynamics, while the evaluation system facilitates adaptive work sequences and allows employee-specific task fulfillment. The concept was implemented and analyzed in the Industry 4.0 model factory at FH Aachen for mechanical assembly jobs.}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{UlmerBraunChengetal.2022, author = {Ulmer, Jessica and Braun, Sebastian and Cheng, Chi-Tsun and Dowey, Steve and Wollert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Usage of digital twins for gamification applications in manufacturing}, series = {Procedia CIRP Leading manufacturing systems transformation - Proceedings of the 55th CIRP Conference on Manufacturing Systems 2022}, volume = {107}, booktitle = {Procedia CIRP Leading manufacturing systems transformation - Proceedings of the 55th CIRP Conference on Manufacturing Systems 2022}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {2212-8271}, doi = {10.1016/j.procir.2022.05.044}, pages = {675 -- 680}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Gamification applications are on the rise in the manufacturing sector to customize working scenarios, offer user-specific feedback, and provide personalized learning offerings. Commonly, different sensors are integrated into work environments to track workers' actions. Game elements are selected according to the work task and users' preferences. However, implementing gamified workplaces remains challenging as different data sources must be established, evaluated, and connected. Developers often require information from several areas of the companies to offer meaningful gamification strategies for their employees. Moreover, work environments and the associated support systems are usually not flexible enough to adapt to personal needs. Digital twins are one primary possibility to create a uniform data approach that can provide semantic information to gamification applications. Frequently, several digital twins have to interact with each other to provide information about the workplace, the manufacturing process, and the knowledge of the employees. This research aims to create an overview of existing digital twin approaches for digital support systems and presents a concept to use digital twins for gamified support and training systems. The concept is based upon the Reference Architecture Industry 4.0 (RAMI 4.0) and includes information about the whole life cycle of the assets. It is applied to an existing gamified training system and evaluated in the Industry 4.0 model factory by an example of a handle mounting.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ThurnGebhardt2017, author = {Thurn, Laura and Gebhardt, Andreas}, title = {Arousing Enthusiasm for STEM: Teaching 3D Printing Technology}, series = {Conference Proceedings: New Perspectives in Science Education}, booktitle = {Conference Proceedings: New Perspectives in Science Education}, publisher = {liberiauniversitaria.it}, address = {Padua}, isbn = {978-88-6292-847-2}, pages = {87 -- 92}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ThurnGebhardt2018, author = {Thurn, Laura and Gebhardt, Andreas}, title = {Strategy of Education on Materials for Students}, series = {Conference Proceedings: „New Perspectives in Science Education"}, booktitle = {Conference Proceedings: „New Perspectives in Science Education"}, address = {Florence, Italy}, isbn = {978-88-6292-976-9}, pages = {156 -- 161}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ThurnBalcGebhardtetal.2017, author = {Thurn, Laura and Balc, Nicolae and Gebhardt, Andreas and Kessler, Julia}, title = {Education packed in technology to promote innovations: Teaching Additive Manufacturing based on a rolling Lab}, series = {Modern Technologies in Manufacturing (MTeM 2017 - AMaTUC)}, booktitle = {Modern Technologies in Manufacturing (MTeM 2017 - AMaTUC)}, issn = {2261-236X}, doi = {10.1051/matecconf/201713702013}, pages = {6 Seiten}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ThomasWollert2000, author = {Thomas, F. and Wollert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Internet und OO-Systeme in der Logistik}, series = {Risikofaktor Software : Tagung Mannheim, 21. und 22.November 2000.
