Virtual Reality Electric Vehicle Battery Change Training Simulation
My team worked with Vancouver Community College to build this training simulator for automotive mechanic students.
​
The goal - to assist students in developing competance in the skills before ever having to attempt the real thing. Saving time, improving safety (1 tonne and 400V battery), and gaining familiarity and confidence.
​
Specific challenges we had to overcome: User Experience and diagetic and spatial UI. Designing to avoid potential VR sickness. Through regular user testing we managed to isolate these problems and resolve them to positive user feedback
​
Our client was the Dean of Trades at VCC and we reported weekly to him. As project manager I coordinated the team, and my previous experience with developing for VR allowed a deep knowledge with the technology that helped our team keep on track.
​
The project began as a client project with our MDM program, but I helped extend it into our internship to complete the beta.
​
Outcomes:
-
Completed beta version for VCC Automotive
-
Successfully tested with target users
-
Future plan to expand vehicle types and realismuture plan to expand vehicle types and realism​
