more info Machine@Hand 2.0 not only allows instructors to train users by means of VR, but also to create their own modules.
Fraunhofer IGD of Rostock will be showcasing Machine@Hand 2.0, the beta version of its VR learning environment, at this year’s Hannover Messe. Machine@Hand 2.0 facilitates the creation of effective VR scenarios for training in the use of complex machinery, systems and technical processes. The VR learning environment is combined with an easy-to-use authoring tool. The VR modules can be readily integrated into existing LMS platforms and e-learning modules.

more info Rostock researchers develop a new underwater vehicle with flexible equipment.
A project group in Rostock has developed a modular system for underwater vehicles consisting of components that can be readily combined with each other. These modular remote-operated vehicles (ROVs) can be used in various scenarios -- a first in underwater technology. The prototype has now passed testing in the Baltic Sea.
