Abstract

We propose a Virtual Authoring Tool based on Game Technologies for smart factory. The smart factory is the software technology for increasing productivity by applying digital technology to industrial fields and conducting simulation through analysis and predictions. Many of the Smart Factory related software supports 2D analysis and monitoring. The 2D Smart Factory solution is gradually changing into the more intuitively convenient 3D and then VR based Virtual Factory. This study developed a VR based 3D authoring tool in which the users can intuitively objects and simulate a production site through VR visualization. Testing and evaluates were performed through a performance and error rate experiment, and the authoring tool was actually applied to a factory to test its application.
