| Description | In recent years, the benefits of both Augmented Reality (AR) technology and infrared thermography (IRT) have been demonstrated in the industrial maintenance sector, allowing maintenance operations to be carried out in a safer, faster, and more efficient manner. However, there still exists no solution that optimally combines both technologies. In this work, we propose a new AR system—MANTRA—with specific application to industrial maintenance. The system can automatically align virtual information and temperature on any 3D object, in real time. This is achieved through the joint use of an RGB-D sensor and an IRT camera, leading to high accuracy and robustness. To achieve this objective, a pose estimation method that combines a deep-learning-based object detection method, YOLOV4, together with the template-based LINEMOD pose estimation method, as well as a model-based 6DOF pose tracking technique, was developed. The MANTRA system is validated both quantitatively and qualitatively through a real use-case, demonstrating the effectiveness of the system compared to traditional methods and those using only AR. |
