TL;DR
Novel tools to assist manual assembly in an virtual environment where the user's actions are logged and an assembly plan is produced and prototypes are reduced and concurrency is enhanced using such tools.
Abstract
This paper presents novel tools to assist manual assembly in an virtual environment. While assembling virtual components, the user's actions are logged and an assembly plan is produced. Prototyping is reduced and concurrency is enhanced using such tools. Successful pilot studies have now been completed.

Investigation of whether estimates of ease of part handling and part insertion can be provided by multimodal simulation using virtual environment (VE) technology, rather than by using conventional table-based methods such as Boothroyd and Dewhurst Charts shows that the Multimodal VE is able to replicate experimental results.

This paper presents how the user is enabled to grab objects without using any specific and elaborate hand gesture, which is more intuitive and close to the way humans are used to do, and introduces a technique that makes it possible for the user to surround objects without any force-feedback interaction device.
A virtual object manipulation interface for automated assembly programming

A novel robotic workcell programming interface that allows an assembly designer to obtain immediate feedback regarding the manufacturability of his design and translates them into low-level commands for the robots in the specific workcell under consideration.
