Mobile augmented reality offers important opportunities for learning. Moreover, it may represent new challenges for teachers and researchers. Implementing an augmented reality (AR) or a virtual reality (VR) learning experience involves the exploration of unusual pedagogical and technological boundaries. According to recent studies, it would be more productive to consider the augmented reality as a concept rather than an educational technology (Guazzaroni, 2015; Wu et al., 2013). This chapter is devoted to analyze a high school class of 23 students invited to use AR and VR tools to create their own study material. They are about 16-year-old attending Istituto Tecnico Tecnologico “Eustachio Divini” in San Severino Marche, Italy. The basic idea of the trial is to create a short printed document augmented with the technologies of AR and VR. The experience is evaluated using tests and direct observation. The aim is to observe the impact of augmented mobile learning and to demonstrate that AR and VR study material may represent a new communication object adequate to teach future students.

This article describes how a shared vision systems support people to solve a problem from different places. The advantages of the system are, reduction in time to diagnose and resolve maintenance issues, reduction in diagnosis errors, reduced travel costs for experts, and increased reliability in service. The aim of this article is to analyze the benefits of a shared vision system for maintenance and repair tasks for wind turbines as well as to improve the occupational safety and health. The entire process for wind turbines, from installation to operation and maintenance deals with very large components and maintenance operations are actually quite complicated. Therefore, instead of wind turbine, a substitute system is used for the experiment to analyze the advantages of a shared vision system for maintenance operations. The substitute system and the wind turbine have similar mechanical and electrical failures that need to be solved. As a part of this article, a substitute system is used and implemented by using a shared vision system for maintenance operation.

Augmented Reality systems represent technological solutions allowing integration of virtual and real worlds. As the importance of information in technology rises, AR has become a great contribution to many applications. Already since the origins of AR, industry has always belonged among the key application areas. The recent advances in both wearable and portable devices supporting AR significantly increase the applicability of AR. In connection with the new challenges arising with the development of Industry 4.0, AR systems present a great tool to productivity improvement and user experience enhancement. This is a reason, why Industrial augmented reality is considered to be one of the key parts of Industry 4.0 concepts. The principal aim of this study is to describe AR technology with emphasis put on manufacturing industry and its role in Industry 4.0 initiatives.

Faced with technological development and that of new information and communication technologies (NICTs), organizations' service structures and their processes have become increasingly flexible, interactive, and virtual. Industrial maintenance is one of the features that can take advantage of this change based on NICTs. The objective is to improve the reliability and availability of industrial equipment and installations, as well as to maintain a knowledge base allowing the capitalization of human skills. This makes it possible to keep production equipment at a distance and quickly by relying on remote maintenance and e-maintenance platforms. This allows real-time management between operators around industrial problems related to maintenance. In this chapter, the authors describe the change in the maintenance function between the classic strategy and the modern strategy, explaining the contribution of augmented reality to help solve problems in a remote maintenance or industrial e-maintenance task.
