  Virtual and augmented reality are currently enjoying a great deal of
attention from the research community and the industry towards their adoption
within industrial spaces and processes. However, the current design and
implementation landscape is still very fluid, while the community as a whole
has not yet consolidated into concrete design directions, other than basic
patterns. Other open issues include the choice over a cloud or edge-based
architecture when designing such systems. Within this work, we present our
approach for a monitoring intervention inside a factory space utilizing both VR
and AR, based primarily on edge computing, while also utilizing the cloud. We
discuss its main design directions, as well as a basic ontology to aid in
simple description of factory assets. In order to highlight the design aspects
of our approach, we present a prototype implementation, based on a use case
scenario in a factory site, within the context of the ENERMAN H2020 project.
