X-DE-MAN: Get to know the #OC2

Proposal Acronym: X-DE-MAN

Proposal Title: eXtended reality platform enabling self-resilient operator in DE- MANufacturing industry

Proposal Summary:

X-DE-MAN is an XR-based training platform designed to enhance operator resilience, efficiency, and safety in the de-manufacturing of consumer electronics. It combines immersive training with real-time support to reduce errors, improve skills, and promote sustainable practicesin alignment with Industry 5.0 and circular economy principles.

Key Objectives:

  • XR-Based Training Platform: Create immersive virtual environments where workers can practice disassembly tasks before handling real equipment.
  • Beacon Application: Develop a QR code-based tool to provide step-by-step guidance during the disassembly process, supporting both trainingand real-time operations.
  • Skill Development & Safety: Reduce errors, disassembly time, and workplace accidents by allowing operators to gain knowledge in a controlled virtual setting.

Technical Innovation & Integration:

  • Digital Disassembly Maps: Use automated 3D content generation to create realistic simulations.
  • Competency-Based Learning: Offer personalized training that adapts to individual skill levels and operational constraints.
  • Interoperability: Ensure compatibility with existing industrial tools (e.g., CAD and simulation software) to simplify complex processes for EU SMEs.

Impact & Benefits:

  • Increased Efficiency: Streamline disassembly workflows, reducing both time and errors.
  • Enhanced Worker Safety: Minimize accidents by allowing workers to practice in a risk-free virtual environment.
  • Sustainability Focus: Support responsible consumption by promoting sustainable resource management and circular economy practices.
  • EU SME Support: Improve the competitiveness of small and medium enterprises through advanced training and process optimization.

Development Plan:

The project will follow an iterative approach with testing, validation, and real-world demonstration, advancing from TRL5 (technology validated) to TRL7/8 (system prototype in an operational environment).

X-DE-MAN represents a holistic solution that combines advanced XR training, real-time guidance, and sustainable design, preparing the de-manufacturing industry for the future while enhancing worker capabilities and operational performance.
