Abstract: An industrial asset management system leverages augmented reality (AR) technology to discover and register assets within an industrial facility. The system uses the registered asset tracking information in conjunction with AR-based navigational features to guide users to desired assets and to provide information about an asset within the user's field of view. The asset management system also supports AR-assisted asset check in and check out workflows.
