Source code for Augmented Carpentry Research

2024

Abstract

This is the repo containing the necessary code to run the Augmented Carpentry (AC) software. This is a research thesis project from the Laboratory of Timber Constructions (IBOIS) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). It is an Augmented Reality (AR) application that helps operators to integrate ordinary tools (e.g. power drills, circular saws and chainsaws) into digitally guided woodworking to obtain live computed feedback. The aim is to suppress 2D execution drawings and markings and empower the worker with precise and real-time guidance to replicate even a complex digital designs with manual tools.

Tool

A tool is an object that can extend an individual's ability to modify features of the surrounding environment or help them accomplish a particular task. Although many animals use simple tools, only human beings, whose use of stone tools dates back hundreds of millennia, have been observed using tools to make other tools. Early human tools, made of such materials as stone, bone, and wood, were used for the preparation of food, hunting, the manufacture of weapons, and the working of materials to produce clothing and useful artifacts and crafts such as pottery, along with the construction of housing, businesses, infrastructure, and transportation.

Augmented reality

Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive experience that combines the real world and computer-generated content. The content can span multiple sensory modalities, including visual, auditory, haptic, somatosensory and olfactory. AR can be defined as a system that incorporates three basic features: a combination of real and virtual worlds, real-time interaction, and accurate 3D registration of virtual and real objects. The overlaid sensory information can be constructive (i.e. additive to the natural environment), or destructive (i.

Drill

A drill is a tool used for making round holes or driving fasteners. It is fitted with a bit, either a drill or driver chuck. Hand-operated types are dramatically decreasing in popularity and cordless battery-powered ones proliferating due to increased efficiency and ease of use. Drills are commonly used in woodworking, metalworking, construction, machine tool fabrication, construction and utility projects. Specially designed versions are made for miniature applications.
