Abstract
Operating hazardous machinery often requires comprehensive
training, which can be costly, time-consuming, and lead to delays.
To address these challenges, we introduce VR Trainee, a Virtual
Reality-based tool designed for electrical substation workers. VR
Trainee allows users to interact with objects in a safe, controlled
environment, enhancing training effectiveness for new maintenance
employees. Equipped with inertial sensors, it gathers data to provide
real-time feedback related to users’ actions. Initial validation
shows significant skill improvements, thanks to trial-and-error opportunities
and clear instructions. Our work demonstrates VR’s potential
to streamline learning and boost user motivation.
