Abstract

The present paper shows the development of a virtual reality application through the creation of environments that allows supervision, monitoring and control of industrial processes. It has the possibility to simulate or work with live-time information, linked to existing process modules of the most important physics variables such as level, pressure, flow and temperature. The results of the application are presented to validate the project, using the functions of supervision, monitoring and control, the scopes reached in emulation, as well as the contrast between the emulation option and real interplaying with industrial processes.
