In the Pylon
Assembly line, it has been used MiRA (Mixed Reality Application), a
three-dimensional (3D) viewing device, to save time and cost.
In 2009, EADS
Innovation Works and Airbus set about developing a collaborative project to
help automate the aircraft production process. Three years later, Airbus
quality inspectors in St.Eloy are using MiRA, to compare aircraft on the
production line with their 3D digital mock-ups.

The genesis
of MiRA took it through the following process:
- From 2009
Innovation Works developed MiRA’s technological foundations. This included
software and hardware development and integration (camera and motion sensors).
- In 2010, Innovation Works and Airbus built a
business case for MiRA, while also progressing to a more mature prototype.
- In early 2011, Airbus decided to fast track
MiRA’s development, in order to ensure its availability in time for A350 XWB
series production at the end of 2011. Technology development was completed and
a production supply chain put in place

MiRA is now in
use on the A380 and A350 XWB production lines, being used to check the
secondary structural brackets that hold systems such as hydraulics and pipes in
place. The target is to reduce the time needed to check tens of thousands of
brackets in the fuselage as well as high reduction in late discoveries of
damaged, wrongly positioned or missing brackets.
Accenture told me about the making of this app. I think it's somehow theatrical, and I doubt that it's going to have a huge effect on efficiency in the short term.
