Abstract:
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, augmented reality and/or virtual reality technologies are used to present information for a vehicle to a technician. A virtual object model file that includes a context model and at least one assembly detail model is created based on a vehicle design model. A VR/AR device uses its camera to generate video of a vehicle, and superimposes a depiction of a vehicle component or assembly from the virtual object model file over the video in the location in which the vehicle component or assembly is actually located, as if the vehicle were “see-through.” The VR/AR device may then also allow the technician to select specific components of the depicted assembly in order to retrieve and display detailed information about the component.
