Since 2019, MUNER has partnered with Vection Technologies, a growing company that helps businesses leverage their 3D data through powerful Extended Reality (XR) interfaces that drive collaboration, learning, revenue growth and more.

Together, we created a ‘Learning by Doing and Interactive Innovation’ demo where participants wear state-of-the-art augmented reality visors and are guided by MUNER engineers and students in a virtual space where they can live three different experiences:

1) assemble a Formula SAE hybrid or electric vehicle

2) verify the power flows generated by the propulsion systems

3) visualise and experience sound maps as if in an anechoic chamber.

Following a launch at Expo Dubai 2020, the project has been showcased at subsequent events:

Love IT Detroit (19-23 settembre 2021, Detroit)
FIM General Assembly(2 dicembre 2022, Rimini)
Motor Valley Fest (11 e 12 maggio 2023, Modena)
R2B – Research to Business (9 giugno 2023, Bologna)

Project Objectives

To develop Augmented Reality content to support education and innovation in the automotive and sustainable mobility sector.
To create and test new methodologies that can be used by professors to support teaching, thanks to existing three-dimensional models that can be visualised in augmented reality.
