Five Ways XR Will Transform Industrial Training in the Next Five Years

In the last five years, AR has been adapted to industries as varied as oil plants and marine yards, alongside other gamification technologies such as virtual reality (VR). Within these industrial environments, gamification helps simplify the transfer of complex knowledge for field and plant operators or to general staff.

In the future, the single biggest game-changer for virtual training will be an extended reality (XR) experience created with a potent and realistic combination of AI, VR, AR and mixed reality (MR), powered by the cloud. XR is a catchall term referring to all real-and-virtual combined environments and human-machine interactions generated by computer technology and wearables.
