Using virtual oscilloscope and multimeter tools, students will measure voltage, current, and resistance, while receiving real-time feedback on circuit functionality, power ratings, and potential faults.

Steel Structure Design and Fabrication

Explore the intricacies of designing and fabricating steel structures for industrial buildings, towers, and infrastructure projects. Use virtual tools to create steel frames, beams, columns, and joints, with scenarios analyzing load-bearing capacity, material stresses, and connection stability. Receive insights on enhancing durability, optimizing fabrication techniques, and performing cost analysis for efficient project execution.

Control Systems and Automation

This XR simulation trains students in designing and implementing control systems for automated mechanical processes. It provides virtual scenarios where students can program control systems, such as PID controllers, to regulate critical variables like temperature, speed, and pressure in automated systems. Interactive lessons cover feedback loops, sensors, and actuators used in automated machinery, with real-time feedback on the stability, precision, and response times of the control systems.

Blueprint Reading and Layout

The Blueprint Reading and Layout Simulation teaches students how to read and interpret construction blueprints and translate them into physical layouts on-site. Virtual blueprints are provided, where students identify dimensions, layouts, and construction details. Interactive scenarios guide students in marking and laying out floor plans, walls, and structural components based on blueprint specifications. Real-time feedback is given on layout accuracy, alignment, and proper interpretation of building plans.

Vehicle Diagnostics and Maintenance

Vehicle Diagnostics and Maintenance focuses on vehicle diagnostics, troubleshooting, and routine maintenance procedures. Students will use virtual diagnostic tools to identify issues in various vehicle systems, including the engine, transmission, electrical systems, and brakes. They will also learn how to use OBD-II scanners to read error codes, perform repairs, and apply preventative maintenance strategies.

Soldering and Pipe Joining Simulation

Learn how to properly join pipes using techniques like soldering, brazing, and push-to-connect fittings. This simulation provides virtual practice in soldering copper pipes, selecting appropriate flux and heat sources. It also covers other joining techniques such as compression fittings, solvent welding for PVC, and press fittings for PEX. Feedback is given on joint strength, leakage prevention, and adherence to safety standards.
