3D CAD design of KUKA robot arm & integration into AR environment to educational purposes

The use of virtual spaces is also part of Industry 4.0 technology. This is primarily due to the industry's requirement for increased productivity. When used, augmented and virtual reality technologies can have a direct and indirect positive impact on production. The main purpose of this paper is to make a robot more accessible, interactive, and safe with the help of Augmented Reality. An industrial robot unit will be designed as a 3D CAD model, which will then be integrated into a simulation environment where the original physical machine's parameters are entered for the virtual model, thereby simulating the operation of the machine unit. Following that, the 3D model is placed to create its own marker, which contains its documentation and enables virtual interaction. Although technological developments are bringing down the price of robots, the average individual or student still finds them to be expensive. In our approach, we assert that the use of augmented reality (AR) makes it simpler to visualize and simulate industrial situations. Additionally, it is feasible to enhance process programming, maintenance, training, and monitoring. Numerous applications can be built using this project.
