Audio Feedback in Automation Systems (aw)

OBS! ANSÖKNINGSTIDEN FÖR DETTA EXJOBB HAR LÖPT UT.
Today’s automations systems lack use of any kind of audio feedback. Humans have a sense which need is not at all fulfilled, namely the sense to listen. Operators are used to go out on the factory floor to listen if anything has gone wrong. They are capable to monitor the production line and prevent problems just by evaluating the sounds from different machines.
This thesis aims to investigate how these sounds can be provided to the operator (i.e. to the monitor where the process is viewed). By investigating suitable technologies and discuss the issues with the real users a working prototype will be developed.
The thesis work includes research, programming (programming language depends on selected audio technology), documentation and training.

Output of thesis
• Evaluation report of different technologies using audio
• Prototype of selected technology(ies) applied to ABBs automation system
• Intro course for colleagues and other interested in the above selected technology(ies)

Requirements
This thesis is a D-level thesis for two students in the computer science and computer engineering areas. The students should together have the following qualifications:
• Great programming skills.
• Understanding of human/computer interaction and usability.
• Creative minds, able to think outside the box.
• Be able to work independently.
The students will be situated at ABB Corporate Researchs building in Västerås, called Tegner.
