Summary:Supported by rapid technological development, mixed reality (MR) applications are increasingly deployed in industrial practice. In manufacturing, MR can be utilized for information visualization, remote collaboration, human-machine-interfaces, design tools and education and training. This development makes new demands on learning factories in two major fields: One is the empowerment of users to work with MR in industrial applications. The second field is the utilization of the potential of MR for teaching and learning in learning factories. A great potential lies in the new possibilities of connecting digital content with the physical world. To analyze the potential applications of MR in learning factories in a structured way, an overview of potential MR applications based on the reality-virtuality continuum is presented with an analysis of case studies of applications in a learning factory including a mixed-reality-hackathon.
