Fluid Mechanics and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

Teach students the principles of fluid dynamics through immersive XR simulations and hands-on practice with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Virtual scenarios allow students to simulate fluid flow in pipes, pumps, valves, and aerodynamic surfaces, offering a deep dive into the behavior of fluids in different environments. Students will use interactive tools to set up boundary conditions, generate meshes, and analyze flow patterns using CFD software. Real-time feedback focuses on improving flow efficiency, managing pressure drop, understanding turbulence, and optimizing design solutions.

Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Design

Equip students with the skills to design and program Human-Machine Interface (HMI) systems for industrial automation. Through virtual simulations, students will create HMI dashboards to monitor and control machinery, systems, and processes. They will interact with various machine parameters, such as system start-up, shutdown, and emergency stop functions, while receiving feedback on user interface design, system responsiveness, and ease of use.

Power Systems and Distribution Networks

The Power Systems and Distribution Networks module immerses students in virtual environments where they explore the design, operation, and analysis of electrical power grids. Through simulations and interactive tutorials, students learn to manage generators, transformers, transmission lines, and load centers, while optimizing system performance, detecting faults, and ensuring efficient energy distribution.

Etching and Deposition Techniques

Gain practical experience in etching and deposition, essential steps in semiconductor fabrication, through immersive XR simulations. Explore virtual labs that simulate dry and wet etching, along with deposition methods like CVD and PVD, with interactive controls and real-time feedback.

Welding Safety and PPE Training

The Welding Safety and PPE Training simulation focuses on reinforcing essential safety protocols and the correct use of personal protective equipment (PPE) for welding activities. With XR integration, participants engage in immersive scenarios to identify hazards, practice safe behaviors, and ensure compliance with safety standards.

Indoor Air Quality and Ventilation Systems

The Indoor Air Quality and Ventilation Systems Simulation teaches students how to design, install, and maintain systems that improve indoor air quality (IAQ) and ventilation. Virtual tools are provided for installing ventilation systems, such as air purifiers, dehumidifiers, and energy recovery ventilators (ERVs). Students engage in interactive exercises where they measure and control indoor humidity, carbon dioxide levels, and particulate matter. Real-time feedback is offered on ventilation efficiency, IAQ improvement, and system maintenance.

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.
