Virtual Reality and Virtual Environments

A Tool for Improving Occupational Safety and Health

Beschreibung

Virtual reality (VR) systems are becoming popular in occupational health and safety. Studies conducted in a simulated, virtual world make it possible to test new solutions and introduce modifications to eliminate risk in work-related accidents. VR techniques assist people with disabilities and special needs by aiding them to adapt to workstations.

Autor

Andrzej Grabowski, PhD (Eng), DSc, is Head of the Laboratory of Virtual Reality Techniques at the Department of Safety Engineering at the Central Institute for Labour Protection - National Research Institute Graduate of the Faculty of Physics at the Warsaw University of Technology. His work has been concerned with issues related to neural networks, the application of machine vision in safety systems, nonlinear systems dynamics and the evolution of complex networks and propagation phenomena that take place inside them. Currently, in his work he conducts studies on the application of virtual reality in various fields, including training, cognitive functioning, telepresence and teleoperation and support rehabilitation. He also works on the development of VR techniques conducted; for example, vehicle simulators, HMD type wireless VR goggles, wireless VR gloves with force-feedback and motion capture visual measurement systems are being developed in the laboratory.
