The FORAN Virtual Reality solution provides access to the 3D model of the ship developed in FORAN, taking advantage of the latest technologies. Visualization and model navigation can be managed from different devices (one-side view environment, complex multi-wall simulator as caves or head-mounted displays) and for many purposes (such as design review, simulation of operations, ergonomics, marketing) using our virtual reality tool for shipbuilding. Benefits can be seen in fabrication and construction, where many costly errors can be easily avoided.
