Knowledge sharing in manufacturing using LLM-powered tools
User study and model benchmarking
Recent advances in natural language processing enable more intelligent ways to support knowledge sharing in factories. In manufacturing, operating production lines has become increasingly knowledge-intensive, putting strain on a factory's capacity to train and support new operato

Lessons Learned from Designing and Evaluating CLAICA
A Continuously Learning AI Cognitive Assistant
Learning to operate a complex system, such as an agile production line, can be a daunting task. The high variability in products and frequent reconfigurations make it difficult to keep documentation up-to-date and share new knowledge amongst factory workers. We introduce CLAICA,

Embedding Interactive Information in 3D Prints Using Low-Cost Readily-Available Printers and Materials
We present a fully-printable method to embed interactive information inside 3D printed objects. The information is invisible to the human eye and can be read using thermal imaging after temperature transfer through interaction with the objects. Prior methods either modify the sur
