A Review on Virtual Reality Skill Training Applications

“…VR devices will not fully replace traditional equipment, but can serve as a more affordable alternative for training. Researchers Greunke and Sadagic (2016), and Taupiac et al (2019) have validated that the effect of VR training is comparable to the actual training in some cases, for example, for improving the proficiency of some military equipment usage.…”

“…VR training applications are typically created according to specific tasks characterized by a fixed procedure and a practical purpose for a specific training target. Thus their implementations are generally miscellaneous and different from each other (Lang et al, 2018;Si et al, 2018;Taupiac et al, 2019). Xie et al (2006) explored generalized descriptions of different training scenarios.…”

“…Another similar scenario where the VR greatly improved training quality and condition compared to the traditional training method was presented by Taupiac et al (2019). The authors created virtual reality training software that helps the French Army infantrymen to learn the calibration procedure of the IR sights on a combat system called FELIN.…”

A virtual reality classroom to teach and explore crystal solid state structures

“…Several studies have shown that skills gained in virtual simulations may be successfully transferred to real life situations [42,53] and retained over a longer period of time [10]. Accordingly, virtual reality has been applied to training and learning in a broad spectrum of domains including industrial processes and security [38,40], aviation safety [10], cultural heritage [3,4], military training [54,69], Internet of Things [77] surgery [1,59,65,71], geography [39], safety procedures [10], and social interactions [36,37,64,72,73]. Virtual reality has also been widely applied to education and a thorough survey of the research in such broad area is outside the scope of this paper.…”

An Educational Experience to Raise Awareness About Space Debris

“…Moreover, several results show that skills gained in such simulations are transferable to real life situations [45], [59] and are retained over a longer period of time [14]. Some existing applications provide training for firefighting [15], [16], [78], military purposes [60], [76], industrial processes [44], helping teachers deal with disruptive behaviors [41], [82], surgery [3], [65], [74], [81], safety procedures [14], and dealing with stressful situations [40], [73].…”
