Transforming Forklift Training with Virtual Reality

Overview:

Virtual Reality has revolutionized training and education, providing immersive, engaging simulations that mimic real-world situations. Our client, a leader in Powered Industrial Trucks (PITs) training since 2005, sought to enhance their training methods by incorporating VR technology solutions.


Challenge:

Our client has faced the challenge of captivating the millennial generation with visual training, ensuring user-friendliness across age groups, and addressing safety and cost concerns in PITs training. Motion sickness and the need for robust hardware-software communication were additional hurdles.

Solution:

Travancore Analytics (TA) proposed a VR and Web combination. TA built a realistic VR simulation of a warehouse and forklift using 3D software, complemented by a user-friendly windows application. The VR simulation provided realistic sit-down forklift training, while the web portal managed administrative tasks and recorded training sessions. The application supported VR headsets, logitech steering wheels, and specialized forklift controllers.

Impact:

The VR solution transformed PIT training:

  • Immersive and meaningful experience

  • Reduced risk of accidents and injuries

  • Improved efficiency of PIT operators

  • Cost-effective alternative to physical training facilities

Expertise:

Travancore Analytics leveraged expertise in Extended Reality and Web apps, demonstrating a transformative approach to industrial training.
