Abstract

This work presents the implementation of virtual environments oriented to managing pneumatic controls applied to industrial processes in order to strengthen training and teaching-learning processes. The implemented application enables the multi-user immersion and interaction with the aim to accomplish predefined tasks to be developed within lab environments and virtualized sceneries for industrial processes. Obtained results show how easy it is to interact with the proposed multi-user environment.
