Virtual Reality, with its many-faceted possibilities, is already a key future technology in the specialist machine engineering sector, but can also be used by architects and other production, design and development industries. Machines are presented in a virtual environment. This enables definitive spatial concepts and views from a number of different perspectives which would often not be possible in reality. The prime target is primarily that of driving forward the power of innovation in conjunction with efficacious cooperation and development.
"The future lies in virtual development and implementation" according to Kurt Engel, Managing Director of Packaging Valley. Further possible applications are currently being worked on by experts and partners of the network.
