VR Safety & Maintenance Training for Leather Industry Automation

Our Solution

We designed a dual-purpose VR solution to train personnel and support operational communication.

1. Interactive Safety & Maintenance Training Simulation

An immersive training module that mirrors Hüni’s real-world maintenance and safety processes.

Key Features:

• Step-by-step simulation of procedures

• Hazard identification and safety prompts

• Hand-tracked interactions for tool and machinery manipulation

• Real-time visual/audio feedback on user actions

• Risk-free environment — no impact on real equipment

• Session summaries to reinforce safety best practices

2. Procedure Visualization & Safety Showcase

A lightweight VR experience designed for onboarding, safety briefings, and internal alignment, without full interactivity.

Key Features:

• Visual walkthrough of operations and safety checkpoints

• Annotated procedural flow

• Emphasis on compliance with Hüni’s SOPs

• Optimized for quick demos and remote sessions

Technical Overview

Scope of Work

Our full-cycle development process included:

• Joint storyboarding with Hüni’s subject-matter experts

• Translating written procedures into VR logic & interactions

• 3D asset optimization from engineering models

• Custom environment modeling for realistic settings

• User interface tailored to non-technical operators

• Hand-based interactions and hazard simulation design

• User testing & feedback loops with Hüni’s internal teams

• Project coordination across training and safety departments

Why VR?

Virtual Reality is a powerful tool for industries with high-risk, high-precision tasks

Specific Benefits for Hüni:

• Zero-risk learning Practice without danger or equipment wear

• Standardization: Every worker trains on the same correct procedures

• Immersive retention: Hands-on learning yields higher comprehension

• Immediate correction: Real-time feedback accelerates improvement

• Compliance-ready (future feature): Logging options can support audit needs

General VR Benefits:

• Scalable training across locations

• Faster onboarding with reduced operational disruption

• Fewer incidents through proactive, experiential learning

• Improved stakeholder alignment via shared immersive understanding

The Result

Hüni now has a VR-powered system that:

• Elevates workforce safety and maintenance performance

• Reduces human error and downtime

• Enables consistent knowledge transfer across teams and geographies

• Serves as both training and internal communication tool

• Demonstrates innovation and leadership in industrial safety

By blending Hüni’s domain expertise with immersive technology, we delivered a solution that transforms critical training into an intuitive, engaging, and repeatable experience — setting a new standard for safety and operational excellence in the leather industry.
