Virtual Environment for Education and Training in Safety Engineering and Maintenance

  • Conference paper
Virtual Environments ’98

Part of the book series: Eurographics ((EUROGRAPH))

Abstract

Education and training depends on perception of, information about and self-driven examination of unknown environments. The paper describes a virtual environment for education and training in safety engineering and maintenance. The characteristics of the environment is a combination of 3D-visualization, real-time simulation and multimedia representation of information. The user will interact in a realistic environment of manufacturing engineering facilities with dynamic behavior, real-time interactivity and free control of information support. First experiences will be presented form different projects.
