Introduction, Objectives, and Working Rules
• Introduction of participants and the trainer
• Workshop objectives
• Session structure and format
• Context of VR usage in industrial training

Module 1 – VR and AI Technological Context
Topics covered:
• Evolution of immersive technologies in industrial training
• Differences between Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Mixed Reality
• The role of AI in simulating industrial scenarios
• Current state of VR adoption in the sector
• Examples of real implementations and industry case studies

Module 2 – Hands-on VR Live Demo
A practical session where participants will experience VR scenarios using dedicated headsets.

Demonstration scenarios:
• Safety training in industrial environments
• Operation simulation in power stations / electrical substations
• Lockout Tagout (LOTO) procedures
• First aid and intervention scenarios
• Navigation and interaction with equipment in virtual environments

The activity is conducted in a rotational format, giving participants the opportunity to directly experience the VR scenarios.

Demo A – Workplace Safety and Emergency Response

Application: VR Fire Safety & Emergency Response

Scenario: The participant goes through a fire response protocol in an industrial environment.

Included elements:

• hazard identification
• use of firefighting equipment
• evacuation procedures
• emergency communication

Additional component: first aid simulation using a VR mannequin

Demo B – Virtual Tour of a High-Tension Industrial Facility

Application: Metaenga – HV Electrical Substation Tour

Scenario: Virtual exploration of a complex industrial facility.

Presentation elements:

• power transformers
• circuit breakers and protection equipment
• disconnectors and control systems
• CT / VT (Current Transformers / Voltage Transformers)
• complete layout of the facility

The participant navigates independently and identifies the main components of the infrastructure.

Demo C – Energy Isolation and LOTO Procedure

Application: Metaenga – Industrial Energy Isolation & LOTO

Scenario: Execution of a complete Lockout Tagout procedure in an industrial environment.

Included elements:
