Herramienta didáctica de realidad aumentada con Python y OpenCV, para la visualización y despiece en 3D de un brazo robótico.

Abstract

Technological evolution directly affects different aspects, areas and sectors of our environment, one of them, education. It is therefore essential to take advantage of the access that one has to them and implement them, in search of contributions and benefits that promote knowledge and interaction in educational processes, one type of these is augmented reality (AR). This type of technology can be a didactic support material in face-to-face and remote classes, for subjects focused on the analysis of elements and machines. As a solution, an augmented reality tool was developed based on the Python programming language, using OpenCV and OpenGL as main libraries, capable of displaying elements that make up a robotic arm. Based on this, a portable augmented reality application was obtained that displays the exploded view of the KUKA KR360-2 robotic arm, which also has a user interface, in which there are various functions focused on the development of practical activities such as the animation section, rotation of 3D models, movement of 3D models and information on displayed elements, etc.
