“…Within the literature that does not perform evaluation, most of the XR developments for safety focus on the design, development, and simulation of the experience. These include topics such as: training in the use and operation of cranes [ 34 , 35 ], postural training [ 36 ], paving operations [ 37 ], among others [ 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 ]; collision detection [ 44 , 45 ]; prevention of occupational hazards [ 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 ]; and the general topics of construction safety [ 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 ]. Some papers test the operation of the technology in addition to focusing on the development of the experience.…”

“…Some papers test the operation of the technology in addition to focusing on the development of the experience. However, they do not evaluate the effectiveness or provide details [ 34 , 36 , 48 , 50 ]. On the other hand, some articles mention the need to perform evaluations within their future research [ 37 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 ].…”

The construction industry has high accident rates. The sector is exploring various tools to improve safety management, training, and awareness to achieve zero accidents. This work focuses on extended reality (XR), which encompasses virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) technologies. Several authors have developed training experiences for construction safety in XR environments with positive conclusions about their effectiveness. However, there is no standardization regarding the evaluation methods used in the sector, and many experiences do not use any method. This lack is critical, as whenever the aim is to evaluate the degree of awareness of security issues, the implementation of evaluation systems is indispensable to make known the methods used in the literature to evaluate the effectiveness of the experiences and represent support for future research. This research identifies developments in XR experiences and analyzes the validation methods through a systematic review using the PRISMA methodology. It identifies two evaluation methods, objective and subjective, which are each broken down into four categories. The results show the types of evaluation, safety-related purposes, and safety application objectives used by the database classification.

“…En otro tipo de factores de riesgo laborales es muy común simular el entorno laboral (ya sea recreando una situación o utilizando tecnología). Ejemplo de esto son los simulacros de evacuación, entrenamiento de trabajo en altura, entrenamiento de trabajo en espacios confinados, uso de muñecos didácticos y uso de simuladores de riesgos laborales (Joshi et al, 2021;Ojelade y Paige, 2020;Wu et al, 2020). La realidad virtual ha sido validada en el campo de intervenciones psicológicas tradicionales, pero su aplicación en la prevención de factores de riesgos psicosociales es incipiente a nivel mundial.…”

“…La realidad virtual (RV) definida como un sistema informático que brinda a los humanos la capacidad de percibir e interactuar de formas motoras multisensoriales y realistas, con datos digitales 3D o mundos virtuales, además de brindar una experiencia inmersiva, dirigiendo esta sensación a factores cognitivos, como la posibilidad de interactuar con objetos y la implicación de acciones de los usuarios en un entorno virtual (Selzer et al, 2018). Los simuladores RV se han utilizado en diversos sectores industriales, principalmente para la formación, capacitación y entrenamiento en diversas habilidades y capacidades, en escenarios idénticos y altamente realistas (Joshi et al, 2021;Ojelade y Paige, 2020;Wu et al, 2020), además de usarse para percibir situaciones peligrosas, utilizándose mayormente en sectores como transporte, salud, defensa y seguridad, justicia criminal, sector financiero, marketing y publicidad, desarrollo de habilidades interpersonales, e innovación y emprendimiento (Giraldo-Picon et al, 2018;Nedel et al, 2016;Tangarife et al, 2021).…”

Se ha desarrollado un protocolo de intervención soportado en tecnología de realidad virtual que permite simular entornos laborales en los cuales los trabajadores se enfrentan a factores de riesgos psicosociales para identificar y transformar sus estados emocionales y mejorar su salud y rendimiento laboral. Se partió de una revisión detallada de la literatura para identificar situaciones que resulten amenazadoras para su salud mental en el entorno laboral y sean susceptibles de simulación a partir de realidad virtual. El protocolo y la herramienta tecnológica fueron validados en una empresa del sector construcción en Santa Marta, Colombia, mostrando una buena aceptación por parte de los trabajadores. Estos valoraron positivamente esta opción frente a alternativas tradicionales para aspectos de formación y/o entrenamiento en identificar y evaluar diferentes situaciones que resulten amenazadoras para su salud mental. Se puede indicar que la realidad virtual es una herramienta tecnológica eficaz para promocionar, prevenir e intervenir los factores de riesgo psicosocial.

“…For learning the use of construction machinery, virtual reality makes it possible to realistically simulate different types of machinery, and to train workers in their use and good safety practices [41][42][43][44]. In addition, it has made it possible to study the posture of workers when performing different tasks, evaluating their behavior, and obtaining conclusions for improvement [45][46][47][48]. Different authors have carried out virtual reality experiences to training workers.…”

Factors for the Automation of the Creation of Virtual Reality Experiences to Raise Awareness of Occupational Hazards on Construction Sites

2021

Two of the differential characteristics of the AECO sector (architecture, engineering, construction and operation) are barriers for the mass creation of training materials for its workers. On the one hand, the workplace is unique and changing over time; on the other, the aging trend of its workers and the unattractive nature of the industry for new generations of professionals. These two problems can be tackled by virtual reality technologies, which allow the agile creation of all kinds of scenarios, while their current technology may be attractive to young people and intuitive for everyone. This work shows the results of an investigation that seeks to provide automated tools based on virtual reality experiences to support learning in occupational risk prevention. This objective is part of the development of a culture for prevention, which allows the treatment of the human factor, with all its complexity and casuistry. The proposal includes the development of a process and tools that allow replicating the specific scenario where the work will be carried out, incorporating risks and probable incidents, systematically establishing cause-effect relationships, incorporating a narrative (storytelling) that provides emotional meaning to users and Lastly, the creation of a workflow that facilitates the agile development of these virtual reality experiences for each specific work.
