An Immersive Virtual Reality Application for Collaborative Training of Power Systems Operators

The use of immersive Virtual Reality applications for training in industrial areas has been increasing due to the benefits related to that technology. This paper presents an application to perform training of power system operators in a collaborative and immersive environment. This application aims to enhance the user immersion and increase collaborative training in a Virtual Reality using Collaborative Virtual Environment and a Problem Based Learning approach. It was build in Unity engine and presents a fully integrated scenario of power system visualization with a supervisor module that improves training through the simulation of real events.
