“Great. Effective. Informative.” – TAFE SA

While researching WHS on the internet, I selected a link to the Pro‑Visual company [website] that offered great guides (posters) for a range of industries including two that I train within – the Automotive body and mechanical trades. I requested copies of their guides to place around our training institution so our students can use them.

On receiving several copies for both of our automotive trade areas in a very timely manner, I noticed that they included some Augmented Reality (AR) aspects to their designs. VR and AR are areas I am trying to develop in our training as I know it captures the attention of our students more than 2D resources.
The Pro-Vis AR software downloaded quickly and installed easily.
 
Within the Automotive Mechanics Guide to Workplace Safety, there are several areas where the app can be used. There was one AR hot spot on ‘hierarchies of controls’ that opened to a true AR vision, this was effective. Similarly, for the Body Repairers Guide, the AR spray booth that came from the spray painting in spray booths article was one that appealed to the students.
 
Both guides were informative… the information was of benefit.
The education of safety to our students is a priority.
