WizARd: A No-Code Tool for Business Process Guidance through the Use of Augmented Reality

Complex and extensive processes often cause a decrease in process compliance within an or-ganization. The use of Augmented Reality in process guidance systems offers enormous potential to increase process compliance by providing employees with information at the exact time and location where they are working. For this purpose, we present WizARd, a no-code AR authoring tool in an advanced stage of development for use in business process management, focused on physical processes. WizARd enables the use of AR for both modelling process guidance systems and executing them, and both on the same device.
