Create an XR for Training application - Instructor Based

Introduction

An XR for Training Instructor Based application is a training simulation application designed to let multiple field operators cooperate and interact on a virtual representation of a plant or machine field. The application usually includes an XR Instructor instance used by the trainer to observe the actions of all the operators and a XR Bridge instance used to connect to a process simulator software, such as AVEVA™ Dynamic Simulation.

Steps

1. Use the New Project Wizard to create an Instructor Based Template project. Both empty and sample templates are available.

   

   These templates are mostly based on the Simulation module, which provides all navigation and interaction functionalities.

2. Use the XR Studio Graphic Context Editor to import plant data.

3. Configure plant active items by doing the following:

   • Scanning items

   • Customizing items

   • Configuring standard and User actions

   • Grouping items

4. Configure the XR Instructor related content.

   • Logger

   • Special items

5. Configure Networking related content using Bridge Generator based Run commands.

6. Use cfg_simulation to customize module behaviors like number of operators, their initial positions.

7. Use cfg_commons to customize avatar aspect and VR interactions.
