Passenger to Freighter Conversion

This project, done in collaboration with SIA Engineering Company, involves the creation of VR simulations to be used in video and e-Learning packages on the work process of converting a passenger to a freighter aircraft. This substantially reduced the time spent as well as the cost of training technical staff in the company. The application provides interactive and 3D stereoscopic visualisation, with behaviour programming added to simulate the processes. The whole system is displayed on a dual panel display system and can be made available via the Internet. It provides real time visualisation of the progress of a conversion job.
