What is Virtual Reality?
Virtual Reality is the creation of an artificial world, enablinga significant set of use cases
Virtual Reality is much more then “3D cinema”• users can actively control the with environment• and interact with the environment• in real time (intuitive)
Virtual Reality complements the digital mock-up and covers • Visualization of 3D data - impression of “reality”• A set of tools / methodology to support engineering &
design work, fosteringhuman-machine interaction
Virtual Reality is characterized by the 3 “i”:• Immersion • Interaction • Integration

VR in an early phase of A380 development:
• maintainability investigations with design changes before production
• installation studies (design changes as result)• ergonomic analysis (e.g. oxygen boxes)• cabin-layout presentations• functional tutorials for cabin crew• engineering reviews (CFG and internal)
• over 450 investigations with means of VR:80% affected by design changes
• significant savings due to VR

Virtual Reality...
... will never replace the real world.
But it will support in the daily work -
designing better cabins, systems and airplanes
Reducing costs and time-to-market
