24. Virtual Reality
The virtual reality at STX appeared in 2012
It comes from the conjunction of two events :
 A R&D project on gas ferries with Clarté
 The development of Europa 2 : review of the wheelhouse with owner’s technical interlocutors
Our First VR Equipment : Lscreen

28. Virtual Reality
Since 2015 we also use the virtual reality High-end Equipment of “region Pays de la Loire“
Used for our pre-sale projects (sharing with owner
top management of the new design and innovative
concept of ships).

29. Virtual Reality
With virtual reality we :
 Win time
 Reduce delays
 Reduce risks
Because we allow:
 Internally a better 3D vision of our design :
 view of discipline’s integration
 view of future usage of equipment (operation / maintenance …)
 view of potential difficulties of erection
 With Owners:
 effective dialog
 a common vision of concepts and solutions
 faster and more definitive decision-making (global validation also with constraints)

30. Virtual Reality
Current and future steps :
 Augmented Reality implemented in Workshops
 Individual 3D immersive sessions (Helmet)
 Online reviews with our partners (Sub Contractors)
