The use of VR technology in various industries, including in the industry is constantly growing. ABB is one of the first companies to introduce programming using virtual reality to its offer. This system greatly facilitates the work of an engineer, allowing the user to interact with 3D models through virtual reality goggles. The article presents the design and software of a robotic station that enables the creation of movement instructions using virtual reality technology. The review of the existing industrial solutions using VR technology in welding simulators and other industries. A project of a welding station in the RobotStudio environment was presented and built. Software was written using virtual reality and a model of the real tool was made using the 3D printing method. The designed welding station was tested.

Escape Rooms are presently considered a very popular social entertainment activity, with increasing popularity in education field, since they are considered capable of stimulating the interest of players/students and enhancing learning. The combined game mechanics have led to blended forms of Escape Rooms, the Serious Escape Games (SEGs) and the hybrid type of Escape Rooms that uses Augmented Reality (AR)/Virtual Reality technology, a type that is expected to be widely used in the future. In the current study, the MillSecret is presented, a multi-player Serious Escape Game about local cultural heritage, where the players must solve a riddle about the cultural asset of watermills. MillSecret uses AR technology and it was designed to be conducted in the real-physical environment and in an informal educational context. The paper describes the game, its implementation, the playing process, and its evaluation, which aimed to study the feasibility of game conduction in outdoor settings and the views and experience of players with the game, the local cultural heritage and local history. Evaluation results reveal, among other findings, a very positive first feedback from players that allows us to further evolve the development of the game.

In recent years, immersive virtual reality technology (IVR) has seen a substantial improvement in its quality, affordability, and ability to simulate the real world. Virtual reality in psychology can be used for three basic purposes: immersion, simulation, and a combination of both. While the psychological implementations of IVR have been predominately used with adults, this review seeks to update our knowledge about the uses and effectiveness of IVR with children. Specifically, its use as a tool for pain distraction, neuropsychological assessment, and skills training. Results showed that IVR is a useful tool when it is used either for immersive or simulative purposes (e.g., pain distraction, neuropsychological assessment), but when its use requires both simulation (of the real world) and immersion (e.g., a vivid environment), it is trickier to implement effectively.

The layout and roaming of machinery and equipment in the workshop is an important development direction of intelligent manufacturing. In this paper, the general process of developing an intelligent factory system are put forward. The 3D models of various kinds of mechanical equipment are established. The textures and maps of the model are processed. The virtual simulation engine is used to establish the workshop map. The roaming work of the virtual workshop is developed based on the map. The space layout of the mechanical equipment and the machine tool simulation cutting system are developed. Comparing with the traditional simulation software, this system takes shorter period of development and achieves better visualization. And combined with the virtual reality technology makes this system more creative.

Aims and Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess the clinical feasibility of generating 3D printing models of left atrial appendage (LAA) using real-time 3D transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) data for preoperative reference of LAA occlusion. Background: Percutaneous LAA occlusion can effectively prevent patients with atrial fibrillation from stroke. However, the anatomical structure of LAA is so complicated that adequate information of its structure is essential for successful LAA occlusion. Emerging 3D printing technology has the demonstrated potential to structure more accurately than conventional imaging modalities by creating tangible patient-specific models. Typically, 3D printing data sets are acquired from CT and MRI, which may involve intravenous contrast, sedation, and ionizing radiation. It has been reported that 3D models of LAA were successfully created by the data acquired from CT. However, 3D printing of the LAA using real-time 3D TEE data has not yet been explored. Methods: Acquisition of 3D transesophageal echocardiographic data from 8 patients with atrial fibrillation was performed using the Philips EPIQ7 ultrasound system. Raw echocardiographic image data were opened in Philips QLAB and converted to ‘Cartesian DICOM' format and imported into Mimics® software to create 3D models of LAA, which were printed using a rubber-like material. The printed 3D models were then used for preoperative reference and procedural simulation in LAA occlusion. Results: We successfully printed LAAs of 8 patients. Each LAA costs approximately CNY 800-1,000 and the total process takes 16-17 h. Seven of the 8 Watchman devices predicted by preprocedural 2D TEE images were of the same sizes as those placed in the real operation. Interestingly, 3D printing models were highly reflective of the shape and size of LAAs, and all device sizes predicted by the 3D printing model were fully consistent with those placed in the real operation. Also, the 3D printed model could predict operating difficulty and the presence of a peridevice leak. Conclusions: 3D printing of the LAA using real-time 3D transesophageal echocardiographic data has a perfect and rapid application in LAA occlusion to assist with physician planning and decision making.

High-Performance Computer (HPC) is computer systems that are built to be able to solve computational loads. HPC can provide a high-performance technology and short the computing processes timing. This technology was often used in large-scale industries and several activities that require high-level computing, such as rendering virtual reality technology. In this research, we provide Tawaf’s Virtual Reality with 1000 of Pilgrims and realistic surroundings of Masjidil-Haram as the interactive and immersive simulation technology by imitating them with 3D models. Thus, the main purpose of this study is to calculate and to understand the processing time of its Virtual Reality with the implementation of tawaf activities using various platforms; such as computer and Android smartphone. The results showed that the outer-line or outer rotation of Kaa’bah mostly consumes minimum times although he must pass the longer distance than the closer one.  It happened because the agent with the closer area to Kaabah is facing the crowded peoples. It means an obstacle has the more impact than the distances in this case.

Dalam pengenalan lingkungan sekolah pada siswa baru, umumnya siswa diajak untuk berkeliling sekolah sehingga calon siswa dapat memahami suasana lingkungan sekolah. SMKN 1 INDRAMAYU sendiri masih menggunakan brosur atau spanduk dalam pengenalan sekolah, oleh karena itu bagaimana mengenalkan SMKN 1 INDRAMAYU kepada calon siswa baru tanpa harus mengajak berkeliling. Dari permasalahan tersebut muncul sebuah gagasan untuk membuat aplikasi yang bisa memperkenalkan lingkungan dan memberi informasi serta bisa dijadikan sebagai media promosi SMKN 1 INDRAMAYU yakni menggunakan teknologi virtual reality untuk memvisualisasikan tempat di dunia nyata ke dalam tampilan 3 Dimensi (3D)In introducing the school environment to new students, students are generally invited to tour the school so prospective students can understand the atmosphere of the school environment. SMK 1 INDRAMAYU itself still uses brochures or banners in the introduction of schools, therefore how to introduce SMK 1 INDRAMAYU to prospective new students without having to take a tour. From this problem emerged an idea to create an application that can introduce the environment and provide information and can be used as a promotional medium for SMKN 1 INDRAMAYU, namely using virtual reality technology to visualize places in the real world into a 3 Dimensional (3D) display
