VR Simulation Training Case Study Highlights
Challenge
- To finish assembling a rocket tank, an engineer needed to enter it. The only way in and out was a 40 cm diameter hole, with no room to stand. A realistic training scenario was needed to ensure everything would be reachable when the engineer entered the tank.
- The training program also needed to provide participants with an in-depth look at the structure, functionality, and maintenance of a rocket tank.
Solution
- The development of an interactive VR simulation training platform to safely teach how to complete the final assembly and maintenance of a rocket tank.
- The VR training scenarios created an engaging way for users to learn about the ergonomics of complex aerospace technologies.
- The training simulation provided an interactive learning environment that allowed users to disassemble, inspect, and reassemble the components of a rocket tank.
Results
- By combining detailed visualization and interactive learning, the VR training program offered a unique way to make complex technologies accessible and understandable.
- The immersive VR simulation training provided users with an in-depth look at the structure, functionality, and maintenance of a rocket tank.

Innovative Training Needed for Complex Space Technologies
An industry-leading initiative to advance education and understanding of complex space technologies required a detailed and innovative training platform.
The training program needed to help train engineers who would need to enter a partially assembled rocket tank through a 40 cm diameter hole to finish assembling it. The engineers may have designed the rocket tank but, by this point, would have only interacted with it on a computer screen; they needed a system that would allow them to experience and understand the ergonomics involved with completing the final assembly of the rocket tank.
Developing a risk-free training environment was crucial, as it would allow for the safe and controlled practice of assembly, maintenance and emergency procedures without the risk of real damage or hazards. In addition, the training program needed to include an interactive learning environment where users could disassemble, inspect, and reassemble the components of a rocket tank, which adds another layer of complexity to the training process.
