Virtual Reality Centre

The University of Pretoria Mining Engineering Department has created a Virtual Reality Centre to enhance education, training, and research in operational risk across industries. The centre aims to provide real-world scenarios to learners, allowing them to simulate plans and designs in a risk-free environment. The VR Centre offers numerous operational benefits, such as improved operational productivity, better decision-making, and reduced incidents impacting operational risk. It also allows for the conversion of multiple data sets into strategic business information, enabling decision-making and project design improvements. This innovation allows faculties to differentiate and companies to be more competitive in cost and efficiency.
