Abstract
There is provided an apparatus including a storage unit configured to store, in association with each of a plurality of devices existing in a plant, a storage address of measurement data which is related; a detection unit configured to detect, among the plurality of devices, a target device that a user is looking at; an acquisition unit configured to acquire, from the storage address associated with the target device, measurement data related to the target device; and a display unit configured to display a content acquired by the acquisition unit.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- a storage unit that uses the at least one processor to store a storage address of measurement data which is related to each of a plurality of devices existing in a plant:
- a detection unit that uses the at least one processor to detect, among the plurality of devices, a target device that a user is looking at;
- an acquisition unit that uses the at least one processor to acquire, from the storage address associated with the target device, the measurement data related to the target device;
- and
- a display unit that uses the at least one processor to display a content acquired by the acquisition unit;
- wherein
- the detection unit uses the at least one processor to detect the target device by detecting a location and a line of sight of the user in the plant;
- the acquisition unit uses the at least one processor to acquire the measurement data related to the target device disposed at each of a plurality of field sites where a process is executed in the plant in response to the user looking at the target device;
- and
- the storage unit uses the at least one processor to store the storage address each time an operation of the apparatus is started or each time an operation of the apparatus is started within a reference interval.
A method comprising:
- storing a storage address of measurement data which is related to each of a plurality of devices existing in a plant;
- detecting, among the plurality of devices, a target device that a user is looking at;
- acquiring, from the storage address associated with the target device, the measurement data related to the target device;
- and
- displaying a content acquired by the acquiring;
- wherein
- the detecting includes detecting the target device by detecting a location and a line of sight of the user in the plant;
- the acquiring includes acquiring the measurement data related to the target device disposed at each of a plurality of field sites where a process is executed in the plant in response to the user looking at the target device;
- and
- the storing includes storing the storage address each time an operation of anapparatus is started or each time an operation of an apparatus is started within a reference interval.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having recorded thereon a program that causes a computer to function as:
- a storage unit configured to store a storage address of measurement data which is related to each of a plurality of devices existing in a plant;
- a detection unit configured to detect, among the plurality of devices, a target device that a user is looking at;
- an acquisition unit configured to acquire, from the storage address associated with the target device, the measurement data related to the target device;
- and
- a display unit configured to display a content acquired by the acquisition unit;
- wherein
- the detection unit uses the at least one processor to detect the target device by detecting a location and a line of sight of the user in the plant;
- the acquisition unit uses the at least one processor to acquire the measurement data related to the target device disposed at each of a plurality of field sites where a process is executed in the plant in response to the user looking at the target device;
- and
- the storage unit uses the at least one processor to store the storage address each time an operation of an apparatus is started or each time an operation of an apparatus is started within a reference interval.
