Building Automation Systems (BAS) and Smart HVAC

The Building Automation Systems (BAS) and Smart HVAC Simulation equips students with skills in installing and programming BAS to control HVAC systems, lighting, and other building systems in large commercial buildings. Students will engage in virtual scenarios to set up and program BAS systems, optimize energy use, and monitor the indoor climate. Interactive exercises will involve configuring smart thermostats, sensors, and networked devices for automated temperature and airflow control. Real-time feedback will focus on system efficiency, energy consumption, and troubleshooting networked components.

Sensor and Actuator Integration Simulation

Sensor and Actuator Integration Simulation teaches students how to integrate various types of sensors (such as proximity, temperature, and pressure) with actuators in automated systems. Through hands-on simulations, students will virtually integrate sensors into control systems, monitor input data in real-time, and observe how actuators (such as motors, solenoids, and relays) respond to sensor inputs. The course provides valuable feedback on sensor accuracy, system responsiveness, and effective calibration techniques.

Renewable Energy Systems (Solar & Wind)

Learn how to install and maintain renewable energy systems, including solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and wind turbines. Through virtual simulations, students will install solar panels, inverters, and battery systems in both residential and commercial settings. They will also practice wiring wind turbines and integrating them with grid systems or off-grid installations. Real-time feedback will be provided on energy generation efficiency, grid tie-in, and troubleshooting renewable energy systems.

Fixture Design and Workholding Techniques

Explore XR-based simulations for designing and using fixtures, jigs, and workholding devices for machining complex parts. Students will engage in virtual fixture design, learning to create custom fixtures to hold irregularly shaped workpieces securely. The interactive lessons cover clamping techniques, workpiece alignment, and ensuring rigidity during cutting operations. Real-time feedback helps students assess the effectiveness of their fixture designs, machining stability, and part accuracy, all while improving their ability to handle complex machining tasks.

High Voltage Engineering and Insulation Systems

The High Voltage Engineering and Insulation Systems module offers virtual training on high-voltage systems, focusing on insulation techniques and breakdown phenomena. Through interactive simulations, students explore the design, operation, and safety considerations of high-voltage equipment, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.

Anatomy and Physiology Review

Reinforce students' understanding of human anatomy, with a focus on structures relevant to surgery, through immersive XR technology. Virtual 3D models of the human body allow students to explore, manipulate, and interact with anatomical structures. Interactive quizzes and exercises enhance learning by testing knowledge of critical organs, systems, and their relationships. Simulations will show how different surgical procedures affect the body’s anatomical structures, bridging theory with practical application.
