This Virtual Reality Training Simulator enables the trainee to inspect a virtual transmission line, before graduating to real-life inspections.

All the separate parts of a transmission line and transmission tower were modelled, including good and defective parts. At the beginning of a training session the computer randomly selects a set of parts (good and defective), and assembles virtual transmission lines and towers with it. The trainee line patrolman can now inspect these virtual lines and towers. Defective parts must be identified, logged and categorized. A database of trainee proficiency is maintained.

The simulator may be operated in one of the following modes:

Immersive Virtual Reality
The trainee views the environment with a Head Mounted Display (HMD) and navigates ('walks') through the virtual world by means of a Space Controller. The space controller is similar to a normal joystick, except that it does not have a base (also referred to as a baseless joystick).

Desktop Virtual Reality
The trainee views the environment on a normal Computer Screen, and navigates ('walks') through the virtual world by means of a Computer Mouse or a Joystick.
