An algorithm of virtual reality technologies creation development for solving the tasks of the engineering companies

Abstract

The article discusses the main problems associated with virtual reality systems implementation in engineering industrial companies and indicates that currently great attention in all industries is paid to both production and related processes digitalization. The paper shows that traditional digitalization methods are primarily electronic methods of creating design documentation (computer aided design, CAD), engineering calculations in specialized software (computer aided engineering, CAE), as well as means of computer support for production (computer aided manufacturing, CAM). The study highlights that these methods can significantly reduce the design costs and preparation complexity for manufacturing and, as a result, can reduce the cost. It is assumed that the next logical step towards modern production digitalization is to combine the existing methods with a significant expansion of technological processes visualization possibilities that underlie the production. It is revealed that the process of introducing digital visualization systems requires careful thinking and solving a large number of interdisciplinary problems: from creating a technological process mathematical, physical or digital model, to determining the resources required to be attracted in order to implement a digital system. Thus, the purpose of the work is to develop an algorithm for creating virtual reality technologies that takes into account all the key aspects of this process, which is a complex and urgent task. The article has developed an algorithm that fully reveals this process and shows the economic efficiency of the digital systems implementation for technological processes virtualization in engineering industrial companies.
