“…Even so, the implementation reflects great improvements in many areas starting with the learning of the contents of the subject, the involvement of students to work more actively, more entertaining classes, greater involvement of students and facilitating the learning process among others. Therefore, it is clear that it is necessary to promote the integration of new digital tools, as is the case of simulation and virtual reality, and requested in many other studies (C ozar-Guti errez and S aez-L opez, 2016;Jamil and Isiaq, 2019;Rafiq et al, 2022;Young et al, 2012).…”

PurposeThis study explores the impact of new technologies, such as simulation and virtual reality, on the pedagogy and learning of engineering students. It aims to compare the effectiveness of these digital tools against traditional teaching methods in enhancing student learning experiences.Design/methodology/approachUtilizing a quantitative research approach, the study involved third-year engineering students from the “Production Management” course at the School of Engineering of Vitoria-Gasteiz. Data were collected through an ad hoc questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS software, focusing on student satisfaction, challenges in adopting new technologies and the evolving roles of students and teachers.FindingsThe research highlighted several key aspects. Firstly, it identified the need for adapting teaching methods to incorporate new technologies effectively. Secondly, the integration of simulation and virtual reality was found to facilitate a deeper understanding of real-world problems, as students could engage with these issues in a simulated, virtual environment. Finally, the study emphasized the importance of pedagogical approaches that leverage these technologies to increase student involvement and motivation. The results suggest a positive impact of digital tools on the learning process in engineering education.Research limitations/implicationsThe study’s scope was limited to one course within a single institution, suggesting the need for broader research across various disciplines and educational settings.Originality/valueThis research offers valuable insights into the integration of simulation and virtual reality in engineering education, underscoring their potential to enhance the learning experience and knowledge acquisition among students.

As Virtual Reality (VR) technology advances and becomes more widespread across industries, one of the key challenges is ensuring strong user verification. This study introduces an authentication system specifically designed for Virtual Reality as a Service (VRaaS) aiming to boost security protect user privacy and enhance the user experience. Our innovative approach combines methods such, as facial recognition, iris scanning and voice recognition with advanced encryption techniques and continuous authentication processes to create a seamless yet secure user validation system. We discuss the structure and functionality of this system, assess its performance and address ethical concerns related to biometric verification. The goal of our framework is to tackle security risks by keeping data local on the users' devices and using encrypted tokens for authentication purposes. This not only aligns with global privacy regulations but also suits the dynamic and immersive aspects of VR environments. We wrap up by exploring how this framework could shape VR applications and its potential for use, in sensitive or customized scenarios.

“…A team of experts will work together to design a user-friendly VR learning system that increases the effectiveness of learning. Rafiq et al (2022) explored polytechnic students' perceptions of using immersive VR technology in vocational higher education. VR's high level of immersion and easy usage were found to increase student knowledge, participation, engagement, and devotion to learning.…”
