Abstract
Production efficiency in a production line is improved. A work assistance apparatus includes a profile information evaluation unit that evaluates degree of change in profile information based on worker information and production facility information, a correction estimation unit that estimates a correction method of profile information and a correction effect caused by the correction method based on evaluation in the profile information evaluation unit, and an instruction determination unit that determines a correction instruction for at least one of a worker and a production facility to perform correction based on a corresponding correction method based on a correction effect.
Claims13
A work assistance apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor to execute a program;
- and
- at least one memory to store the program which, when it is executed by the processor, performs processes of,
- generating at least one piece of profile information that is information including work capacity of a worker who performs work in cooperation with a facility and work capacity of the facility based on at least one piece of worker information that is information on the worker and at least one piece of facility information that is information on the facility, and further evaluating degree of change in the profile information with reference to reference profile information that is information including work capacity that is a reference of the worker and work capacity that is a reference of the facility;
- estimating a correction method of the profile information and a correction effect caused by the correction method based on evaluation obtained by evaluating degree of change;
- and
- determining a correction instruction for at least one of the worker and the facility for performing correction based on a corresponding one of the correction method based on the correction effect.
A work assistance method comprising:
- generating at least one piece of profile information that is information including work capacity of a worker who performs work in cooperation with a facility and work capacity of the facility based on at least one piece of worker information that is information on the worker and at least one piece of facility information that is information on the facility;
- evaluating the profile information with reference to reference profile information that is information including work capacity that is a reference of the worker and work capacity that is a reference of the facility;
- estimating a correction method of the profile information and a correction effect caused by the correction method based on evaluation with respect to the profile information;
- and
- determining a correction instruction for at least one of the worker and the facility for performing correction based on a corresponding one of the correction method based on the correction effect.
