The interaction between human and machine in this application was made complicated by the hazards involved including electromechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic actuation along with high speed moving parts, as well as proximity to personnel in training. For this reason, a complex and intuitive safety system, developed and implemented by our CSA-certified panel shop, was required to ensure the safety of all involved along with the efficiency of the system and not sacrificing any of the performance.
Reaction time from VR to the real world is measured in milliseconds, so hardware and software had to be strategically sourced and applied to various aspects of the project to prevent unwanted lag between the VR environment and real world movement. With the assistance of our distribution partners and thousands of hours of R&D, Cutting Edge Applied Technology (CEAT) and its partners played a key role in developing this system and it is being used in Augmented reality motion training services worldwide.
