Structural Analysis and Design

This XR simulation teaches students the principles of structural analysis and the design of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructures. Virtual scenarios allow students to analyze the strength, stability, and behavior of structures under various loads (e.g., dead loads, live loads, wind loads, seismic loads). Students use interactive tools to design beams, columns, trusses, and frames, selecting materials like steel, concrete, and timber. The simulation provides feedback on stress distribution, load-bearing capacity, safety factors, and compliance with engineering standards, helping students make sound design decisions.

Hydronic Heating Systems

The Hydronic Heating Systems Simulation trains students on hydronic heating systems, which use water to distribute heat throughout a building. Students can practice virtually installing and troubleshooting systems that include boilers, radiators, and piping systems. Interactive exercises focus on adjusting water flow rates, pressure settings, and temperature control for radiant heating. Real-time feedback is provided on system balance, heat distribution, and energy efficiency.

Environmental Biotechnology and Bioremediation

Utilize biotechnological techniques for environmental protection and pollution control through immersive XR simulations. Apply methods for soil, water, and air remediation using microbes, design biofilters, and implement phytoremediation strategies to address real-world environmental challenges.

Patient Communication and Therapeutic Interaction

The Patient Communication and Therapeutic Interaction module equips nursing students with essential communication skills and therapeutic techniques for interacting empathetically with patients and their families. Through realistic virtual interactions and role-playing exercises, students learn to address concerns, build trust, and deliver effective patient-centered care while maintaining emotional intelligence and rapport.

Mechanical System Design and Optimization

Enable students to design and optimize complex mechanical systems through XR simulations. The simulation offers virtual scenarios where students can create and refine mechanical systems like engines, HVAC systems, turbines, and gearboxes. They will use interactive tools to adjust system parameters, reduce weight, improve efficiency, and lower production costs. Real-time feedback will guide students on design constraints, feasibility, and cost-effectiveness, helping them develop the skills to optimize mechanical systems for peak performance.

Plumbing Code Compliance and Inspections

Explore the essentials of plumbing code compliance and inspections. This simulation covers the installation of plumbing systems in adherence to local and national plumbing codes, focusing on DWV, water supply, and gas systems. Virtual inspection scenarios allow users to evaluate their work for compliance with safety standards and regulations. Real-time feedback is provided on code violations, safety concerns, and suggestions for improvements to pass inspections.

LMS Integration

imaginX seamlessly integrates with leading LMS (Learning Management Systems), enabling educators to track student performance and allowing students to maintain their work records. It is compatible with popular platforms such as Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, Google Classroom, Schoology, Sakai, Brightspace/D2L, and can also be used independently of an LMS.
