Qapco signs research agreement with CNA-Q - 石油化学会社が拡張現実を使用した支援システムの研究を開始する
カタール石油化学会社（QAPCO）と、北大西洋のカタール大学（CNA-Q）のトレーニング石油·ガス部門の学生が拡張現実の技術を使用した業務支援システムの研究に着手することに合意た。 HMDやスマートデバイスを使用した統合的なシステムを使用することで、ヒューマンエラーを削減したり、紙のマニュアルを使用しないで業務を遂行することができることへの期待は大きい。大きな業務改善が行えることだろう。

In a new partnership, Qatar Petrochemical Company (Qapco) and College of the North Atlantic – Qatar (CNA-Q) have agreed to undertake research into the use of augmented reality for training oil and gas sector students.
Augmented reality (AR) allows multiple types of information to be superimposed over what one sees in the real world through tablets, phones or glasses. With AR, instructions or processes to perform tasks can be displayed visually, rather than having to read through a manual and can greatly reduce time needed for task completion and human error.
The research project would involve the identification of approximately three to five critical tasks commonly performed on one piece of equipment by entry-level technicians at CNA-Q. Customised augmented reality learning objects would then be developed that support competency in performing those tasks.
The learning objects would be tested using volunteer students from CNA-Q’s Engineering Technology and Technical Preparatory programmes. In this stage, qualitative data would be collected from learners to determine attitudes towards training using augmented reality-based learning objects.
