11. Virtual Circuit Board Diagnostics
Working together,
Westinghouse and GSE
Systems are creating a
simulation of the Rod
Control Cabinet Circuit
Boards – using 1st
principles modeling for
non-linear diagnostic
training.
Using a virtual voltmeter
and oscilloscope, countless
scenarios can be used to
test the trainees.

15. Augmented Reality
Overlay real-time
computer graphics and
video on the glasses
of the user. Provide
just-in-time steps
during the task.
Record, stream, and
archive images and
video of the procedure
for review or remote
assistance by a
subject matter expert.

•
Interactive-3D has been proven to improve training
effectiveness, in half the time.
Virtual Job Performance Measures are feasible in a virtual
environment that responds to the physics model of an
Operator Training Simulator.
Virtual Diagnostic Simulation of electronic equipment is
feasible using virtual systems and sensors.
Immersive User Experiences are no longer limited to
expensive “CAVEs” ($200k–$1M+). The
3Di-TouchWall provides a similar experience for less than
$30k.
Wearable Mobile Devices (AR Glasses $700) are making it
feasible to not only have electronic documents in the field,
but the accurate visualization of individual steps during a
task.
