Implementing dynamic VR levels for tower crane training

Abstract

The article describes the application of virtual reality (VR) technologies in the training of hoisting vehicle operators, with a focus on improving the efficiency and safety of the educational process. Traditional methods of training are associated with high costs and significant risks, but virtual reality allows to create a safe and controlled environment for practising professional skills. The architecture of the developed VR simulator is discussed, including realistic crane reproduction, interaction with a virtual slinger and modelling of different weather conditions. An important aspect of the simulator is the procedural generation of content, which allows the creation of unique training scenarios, thus greatly diversifying the learning process. The use of virtual characters adds realism and interactivity to the learning process, allowing users to practice solving complex tasks while interacting with others in the workplace. Research shows that the use of VR in training tower crane operators not only improves the quality of training, but also helps to reduce errors in the initial stages of work. The article emphasises that dynamically variable levels play a key role in adapting the learning process to individual learner needs, making VR training a powerful tool for training professionals in the construction industry.
