Abstract

This study proposes the use of virtual tours as an interactive tool in engineering laboratories in order to increase the student’s motivation and academic performance. The experimentation space corresponds to the integrated manufacturing systems laboratory on campus, which has specialized machinery, such as CNC equipment, industrial robots, and material handling and storage systems. In the first stage, students will not only be able to visit the laboratory remotely but also learn about the components of a manufacturing system. In this way, they will be able to identify the elements and their interaction while learning about specific equipment features. As part of the Industry 4.0 strategy, the virtualization of systems and analysis tools is a global trend. Through this project, students are expected to interact with cutting-edge technology and face real situations that will allow them to develop disciplinary and transversal competencies.
