Abstract

This paper aimed to create a 3D virtual reality simulator for automation training, becoming a training solution for monitoring, controlling, and operating a water pumping station and fire system to survey the industrial infrastructure of the virtual environment and design software. The Unity3D graphic engine was used, which develops the virtualization of the elements involved in the process with greater detail and realism. The interface of peripheral devices such as virtual reality glasses allows interaction and immersion between the user and the virtual environment to complement the learning experience. Within the immersive environment, the operator can see the status of the process and the actions generated through the virtual objects and instruments created in the 3D environment.
