Virtual reality platform

Published on 29 April 2016

FOR ADVANCED MANUFACTURING AND THE FACTORY OF THE FUTURE

The virtual reality platform offers its industrial partners access to a battery of equipment that is unique in France to overcome their technology challenges and create or validate new concepts. The platform uses both virtual reality and blended simulation techniques.

The R&D conducted at the platform covers production lines, workstation ergonomics, collaborative robotics for operator assistance, training, and collaborative work technologies for advanced manufacturing and the factory of the future.

The platform’s industrial partners include integrators (HRV, Oreka Solutions, Haption) and end users in the automotive, aeronautics, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and other industries.

An 18 cu. m immersive environment—the platform’s flagship resource—offers high-resolution displays, laser projectors, eight motion capture cameras, and two haptic interfaces. It is used for interactive multi-physics simulations for R&D projects, demonstrations, or case studies.

The platform also has a two-sided immersive system, mobile equipment like virtual reality headsets and mobile tracking devices, and computing resources for real-time numerical simulation.
