Augmented Reality Application in the Assembling Process

The purpose of this article is to introduce possibilities of assembling process by using special virtual tools from scientific field named augmented reality (AR) and their implementation on the real examples. After the introduction which sketch basic information about this mentioned scientific area, the first point quickly provides view on the current situation in AR of assembling processes. The following step is oriented on explanation of main philosophy of AR in order to apply their in the particular applications. The last part of articles observes real examples of possibilities to create AR, not only by commercial software but also by virtual environment which is offered by open source platform. All these mentioned possibilities and examples are implemented in the special virtual environment of the AR, where engineers can see not only important information about an exact position and orientation of the single assembly items of the entire assembly structure but also necessary information about material, mass, special conditions etc.
