How WA virtual reality tech is training the next generation of welders
Particle
A group of students peer through the thick visors of their welding helmets. They study each tool they will need to make a weld laid out in front of them. A student strikes the plate a few times and the torch catches alight with a flash. Their visor darkens, simulating the mask protecting their eyes from the bright flame. They begin their weld. It’s a pretty standard experience for many high school welding students. Except, in this classroom, none of it is real.
