Possibilities of Use of Virtual Reality in the Field of Manufacturing Systems

Abstract:

The paper presents the structure and performance of the system created by a work team at Department of Production Systems and Robotics at Technical University of Kosice. System MSEVR – „ Modular system for experimentation in virtual reality“ is universal flexible system created for teaching automated and robotic systems by means of new advanced teaching aids, including virtual reality. It has been created as a specialized website and its possibilities are varied. Particular use depends on creativity of a user. Built-in tools enable to use it adequately when teaching construction of industrial robots, to present their kinematic structure or other properties of individual machines. It also enables to work with machine aggregate. In real-life working the system has been tested for optimization of process layout where the full advantages of virtual reality were taken.
