Main contributions

Learn how to operate a crane in a safe environment. The didactic simulators constitute an ambitious solution to train operators in the management of critical situations. They offer the possibility of training employees precisely for the efficient management of different models of cranes for a reduced cost. The versatile virtual environment simulates the environmental conditions and the most varied scenarios.

The group has participated in several research projects and agreements with companies that have resulted in the development of various industrial simulators (cranes, trucks, etc.)
