Resumen
Given the growing evolution of technology, machinery and manufacturing techniques, conventional methodologies for training the workforce are not enough for the current needs. Therefore methodologies capable to accelerate the training process and able to train the trainee in a wide range of scenarios are claimed for the industrial sector. Virtual reality offers an alternative that has been successfully implemented in other industries, and virtual reality based training systems have numerous advantages over the conventional methodologies, making it a very good option. Based on that premise, this paper explores the implementation of an immersive training system for mechanical assembly based on virtual reality for improving the training process. This system was proved to be as effective as the conventional methodology.
