摘要

As the industrial landscape transitions into the era of Industry 5.0, characterized by a synergistic collaboration between humans and advanced technologies, augmented reality (AR) emerges as a pivotal enabler of digital manufacturing. This chapter delves into the transformative potential of AR within the manufacturing sector, illustrating its capacity to bridge the physical and digital realms. By overlaying digital information onto the real world, AR enhances human perception and interaction with manufacturing environments, fostering unprecedented levels of precision and efficiency. We explore innovative applications of AR across various manufacturing stages, from design and prototyping to real-time production monitoring and maintenance. This chapter also investigates AR’s role in augmenting workforce capabilities through immersive training programs and intuitive human–machine interfaces. Additionally, we address the integration challenges and future prospects of AR in digital manufacturing, considering technological advancements, economic impacts, and ethical considerations. By providing a comprehensive analysis, this chapter aims to equip industry stakeholders with insights to harness AR’s full potential, driving the evolution of manufacturing toward more intelligent, sustainable, and resilient systems in the Industry 5.0 paradigm.
