Realizing Virtual Reality Learning Environment for Industry 4.0

The scope of Industry 4.0 is to overlay a simulation on a real-time production line that can investigate poorly understood phenomena and aid the rectification of bottlenecks. VR application in Industry 4.0 allows companies to decrease design and production costs, maintain product quality and reduce the time needed to go from product concept to production. In this work, the authors present the VR's technology aspects and limitations for supporting the VR developers for creating VR industrial environments that produce reliable/feasible simulations of the behavior of machines and real processes and stable operation of remotely real processes.
