Servicing high-voltage equipment requires skill and safety procedures, both of which are acquired through frequent training. Failure to follow safety procedures could result in damaged equipment, injury, or loss of life. Technicians at ENMAX Corporation are required to service high-voltage equipment, but access to training is limited. Lethbridge College proposes to develop a Virtual Reality training prototype for ENMAX that would allow their technicians to access on-demand training that is authentic, immersive, and safe. The training will be relevant, memorable, and allow technicians to experience the results of following incorrect procedures in a safe environment. Current mechanical VR training solutions are limited to controller interaction, which may break immersion and be less effective for mechanical training. The goals of the project are: - Identifying the elements (audio, visuals, interactions) required for an authentic training experience - Determine which interaction style (controller or hand tracking) is most effective. - Inform curriculum and learning experience design best practices for use in VR

维护高压设备需要技能和安全程序，这两者都是通过 经常训练。如果不遵守安全程序，可能会导致设备损坏、受伤或生命损失。 ENMAX公司的技术人员被要求维修高压设备，但接受培训的机会是 有限的。 莱斯布里奇学院提议为ENMAX开发一个虚拟现实培训原型，使他们的 技术人员可以访问真实、身临其境且安全的按需培训。培训将是相关的， 令人难忘，并允许技术人员体验在保险箱中遵循不正确程序的结果 环境。目前的机械VR培训解决方案仅限于控制器交互，这可能会中断 沉浸式训练，机械训练效果较差。 该项目的目标是： -确定真实培训体验所需的要素(音频、视频、互动) -确定哪种交互方式(控制器或手部跟踪)最有效。 -告知在VR中使用的课程和学习体验设计最佳实践
