The Augmented Reality (AR) technology is proven suitable to support manual assembly activities. However, existing applications are hardly adapted to the users. To improve AR assembly assistance, we developed a user-friendly and intuitive user interface that was designed for specific user groups and validated in a usability study. The validation took place in a facility for handicapped people and in a manufacturing company. It confirms the intuitive and easy use of the elaborated user interface and demonstrates the importance of its user group’s specific design.
