• With our society moving towards Industry 4.0, an increasing number of tasks and procedures in manual workplaces are augmented with a digital component. While the research area of Internet-of-Things focuses on combining physical objects with their digital counterpart, the question arises how the interface to human workers should be designed in such Industry 4.0 environments. The project motionEAPWith our society moving towards Industry 4.0, an increasing number of tasks and procedures in manual workplaces are augmented with a digital component.
