Virtual EnvironmentS for optimization and training in InduStry 4.0

The VRTrainingIndustry project, developed by INESC TEC in collaboration with VESTAS, represents a significant advancement in the field of engineering training support technologies. This innovative authoring approach allows trainers, without the need for continuous software engineering or multimedia technical support, to develop and adjust technical training activities. Using 3D models of wind turbines, trainers can directly demonstrate on them, immersed in 3D, the actions that trainees must perform, alongside technical sheets and other reference materials. The project incorporates a virtual choreography technology created by INESC TEC, which enables the recording and comparison of these actions independently of the technical characteristics of the used 3D visualization platform, enhancing the adaptation of knowledge and rules defined on the current platform to new platforms that may emerge.
