Commercial and Industrial Electrical Systems

Explore the differences between residential, commercial, and industrial electrical systems with a focus on larger-scale installations. Students will engage in virtual simulations of 3-phase power systems, industrial equipment wiring, and distribution panels. Through hands-on practice, students will connect high-voltage systems, install transformers, and manage large-scale wiring projects while receiving real-time feedback on power distribution, load balancing, and voltage regulation.

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.

Robotics and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)

Explore the world of designing, building, and controlling Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and aerospace robotics for autonomous flight. In this simulation, students will gain hands-on experience by programming UAVs for specific missions, including navigation, obstacle avoidance, and data collection. Using XR-enabled environments, students will interact with drone dynamics, sensor integration, and flight path optimization techniques, while receiving valuable feedback on UAV stability, control responses, and overall mission performance.

Tool Usage and Aircraft Maintenance Techniques

Explore the effective use of advanced tools and techniques in XR-powered aviation maintenance simulations, enhancing precision and efficiency in real-world tasks.

Disaster Preparedness and Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) Management

Immerse students in disaster preparedness and mass casualty incident (MCI) management through XR simulations. Students will explore virtual disaster scenarios, including natural disasters, chemical spills, and terrorist attacks, while practicing triage, resource allocation, and coordination with emergency services.

Refrigerant Handling and Charging Simulation

The Refrigerant Handling and Charging Simulation provides training on safely handling refrigerants, charging HVAC systems, and recovering refrigerants in compliance with EPA regulations. The simulation features virtual scenarios where students select the appropriate refrigerant types, connect service gauges, and monitor pressures during the charging process. Interactive exercises on refrigerant recovery allow students to practice safe recovery techniques before repairs or replacements. Real-time feedback is provided on refrigerant levels, system pressures, and adherence to EPA regulations for proper refrigerant handling.
