Challenges

Since the construction industry works in high-risk zones, even experienced professionals must train from time to time. This also includes interns. Our client wanted to help builders stay safe and productive by providing an effective and risk-free way for their training. He decided to build a VR construction simulator that enables trainees to simulate real-life situations in a fully immersive risk-free environment. This is how our collaboration began.

Our team needed to develop a VR training simulator that enables construction workers to simulate complex and dangerous real-life scenarios and operate hazardous equipment without risks.

Our solutions

In order to create a solution that would completely meet our client’s requirements, we decided to analyze the construction industry and define the target audience's pain points.

We've carefully considered essential functionality to build a VR construction safety training simulation that lets employees reproduce their work on construction sites, train their skills, and enhance safety knowledge.

Since the main goal was a simulation of complex and dangerous working conditions, we gave high priority to creating graphics, highly detailed 3D models, and real-life VR training scenarios with a useful hint system. We built an app to teach construction workers how to appropriately prepare for work shifts, correctly use harnesses, and properly follow the sequence of actions when working at height.

The Onix team offered the following solutions:
