Abstract
Systems and methods for lesson-based virtual reality (VR) welding training are provided. Broadly, the system creates a configurable, three-dimensional, virtual reality training environment displayed on a VR display. Using a handheld controller associated with the VR display, a student may select a welding lesson. The welding lessons correspond to a variety of different settings, such as welding process type, workpiece type, workpiece position, finishing tool type, guidance mode, and welding machine settings. The student then creates a weld on the workpiece via the handheld controller, and the system provides real-time feedback, such as audio, visual, and/or haptic, to the student. Once the student has completed the weld, the system generates and displays an assessment of the weld.
