What is a simulation?

a computer model to represent a real-life object

2
New cards

How are simulations created?

large volumes of data and mathematical equations producing 3D graphics

3

When are simulations used?

  • Pilots learning to fly

  • Car manufactures testing designs

  • Architects creating models of buildings

New cards

What is virtual reality?

using simulations to recreate 'real experiences' in a virtual world and immerse the user using sensory hardware e.g meta quest headset

New cards

What is the benefit of simulations?

  • No costly fees or long hours/ in-person training

  • No risk to the person, mistakes are alright and it can be fun.

How are simulations used to train for jobs?

  • Training courses allow military personnel to practice without a physical set

  • Body scanners are used to produce a 3D model where surgeons can practice on the virtual patient before carrying it out

How are simulations used in education?

  • Experiencing experiments that are difficult to perform in class

  • Virtual field trips or visiting a museum or battle site
