Planning working environment and production by using paper drawing and computer animation / Peter Bengtsson, Curt R. Johansson and Roland Akselsson
It is assumed that pictorial visualization can be used to facilitate communication between industrial professionals when planning working environments and production. This article analyses how managers, supervisors, machine operators, and occupational health and safety officials, accustomed to using both paper drawings and computer animation of both shop floor and workplace view, evaluate these four types of visualization in relation to a set of planning issues. Twenty-four subjects participated in a controlled two-day planning workshop. All of the four types of visualization are less significant for illustrating or describing physical factors of the working environment
