BARK - The Boeing Augmented Reality Kit
summary
BARK is an enterprise AR/MR system for manufacturing that standardizes on tablets plus tracked work cells (Vikon and ART cameras, eight cameras in a 40×60 ft cell delivering submillimeter accuracy), a zero‑G tablet arm, Unity apps and CAD pipelines from CATIA/IBT. Pilots deploy across five programs at four sites for wiring installs, interference checks that catch mismatches before mating, and a Hololens training episode that reduced training time fourfold. Focuses include calibration algorithms, fiducial fallback, and multi‑platform deployment.
