South Dakota Mines Team Develops Virtual Reality Training
Aim is to Improve Safety Hazard Instruction
A team at Rapid City, South Dakota-based South Dakota Mines has developed a virtual relative (VR) training module that mimics a mining environment.
“We are using new technologies combined with neuroscience to help people learn faster and more effectively,” says Clint Kling, a mining engineering doctoral graduate student currently working on the project under the guidance of Associate Professor Purushotham Tukkaraja, Ph.D.
