Virtual Reality Maintenance Training 

Posted On October 24, 2023

Virtual Reality (VR) is changing the way maintenance training is conducted. The use of VR technology provides workers with a realistic and immersive experience, which makes the training process more effective and reduces the risk of errors and accidents on the job. By simulating real-world conditions, workers can practice maintenance tasks in a safe and controlled environment before attempting them in the actual workplace.

By allowing workers to interact with virtual objects and equipment realistically and engagingly, VR can make training more interesting and motivating and improve the retention of the material being taught.

Workers can use VR to perform interactive simulations, which closely mimic the real-world conditions they will encounter on the job. This allows them to gain a deeper understanding of the tasks they will be performing and can help improve their job performance. Additionally, the use of VR technology can also make training more accessible, as it allows workers to practice tasks in a virtual environment from anywhere, at any time.

Moreover, VR technology increases training accessibility, enabling workers to practice tasks virtually from anywhere, at any time.

DHL, a leading logistics company, has demonstrated the effectiveness of AR/VR technology in maintenance training with a pilot project. The company introduced a VR training activity to assist its warehouse employees in the picking process. This innovative approach replaced the traditional paper pick list and hand-held scanners, making the process more efficient and effective.

Additionally, with wearable VR glasses, DHL warehouse staff viewed guided information for picking. The results of this pilot program were impressive, with a 25% performance increase during the picking process. This allowed warehouse employees to complete order picking more successfully and efficiently.

Just like DHL, our work at InfiVR has yielded substantial improvements for numerous companies and their warehousing and logistics divisions. In our approach, we make use of wearable VR glasses for training, which involve overlaying information to guide employees through various processes. As a consequence, the outcomes have been truly remarkable, leading to notable performance increases and more efficient operations. These successes undeniably emphasize VR’s vast training potential, reaffirming InfiVR’s commitment to innovating in this field.
