Peugeot Makes Cars Appear in Thin Air: Using Virtual Reality to Improve Working Conditions

December 19, 2007 -- CLARTE, the technological resource centre, has joined forces with several automotive parts suppliers (Inergy, Mann+Hummel, PCMI, AMS, Bretagne Atelier and Anjou Etude) as part of the ERVISTA* project. The aim of the project is to improve the ergonomics of workstations and production lines by using virtual reality. CLARTE is presenting its initial results on Wednesday 12 December 2007.

   

 

PSA Peugeot Citroën is recognised as the leading French manufacturer in the field of virtual reality, with the most advanced digital simulation tools in the automotive industry, including CaveTM, the Holobench and scale-one screens. As a partner of CLARTE, the Group is organising an open day at its ADN design centre to coincide with the presentation. The event will further understanding on economic and technological issues in French automotive production and increase knowledge on immersive environment applications.

 
In the face of increasingly tough competition from emerging countries with cut-price labour costs, France has to optimise its productivity if it wants to remain competitive.
One of the French industry’s strong points is innovation, and, more specifically, the use of immersive, virtual reality environments to improve workstation ergonomics and production workshop environments.

The partners of the ERVISTA project are seeking to reduce muscular problems, improve the quality of working life, and help production workers use their workstations more efficiently.
