Abstract

The introduction of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies has ushered in a paradigm shift in industrial maintenance training methodologies. This paper explores the transformative potential of AR and VR in creating immersive training environments, enhancing the efficiency and efficacy of hands-on training modules. By leveraging the capabilities of these technologies, industries can provide real-time, interactive simulations that offer trainees a profound understanding of complex processes, machinery operations, and safety protocols. Furthermore, integrating AR and VR with traditional training modalities ensures a holistic learning experience, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The future trajectory of AR and VR in industrial training points towards a more collaborative, adaptive, and global training landscape, emphasizing the continuous evolution of learning methodologies in the industrial sector. This paper underscores embracing these technologies to foster a safer, more competent, and well-equipped workforce.
