Augmented reality (AR) is a software–hardware fusion that enables creators to display information and 3D models digitally in the real world, giving users the sense that they are actually there. AR is not new, but the hardware and powerful software needed to use it conveniently are becoming more common. With this level of accessibility, AR is gaining use in manufacturing environments to solve many information access challenges.

The term Condition Monitoring (CM) is used variously depending on the source. Whereas automation component manufacturers mean function monitoring of sensors, systems builders and software creators are referring to the monitoring of the surroundings. At first glance, these points of view do not seem to be compatible. But upon closer consideration and taking functionalities into account, it becomes clear that both definitions have parallel validity.
