I. INTRODUCTION
As the functionality of mobile devices has increased, so
have the possible applications for this technology in the
manufacturing environment. A major advantage of mobile
technology is that it can provide information to the user at
any time and location, which will allow the users to make
more informed decisions, be more efficient, reduce waste
(implement Lean manufacturing) and save their company
money. Some of the unique manufacturing applications
for mobile technology include Augmented Reality for
assembly training, pruefcubing, remotely-monitored shop
floors, SPC, and change requests for construction.
