Weld Simulator

This project is a simulator for welding training. This first prototype aims to provide apprentices with a first approach to welders and the AWS structural code, achieving a solid understanding of the use of tools, avoiding accidents and evaluating. The user must configure the wire speed and the voltage of the welder according to the joint he is going to work on, make the type of stroke suggested by the instructor, taking into account the distance range between the sheets and the gun. The simulator will notify when there is a configuration error and when the distance or welding area is not respected.

In addition, an adaptation was made with real physical parts, 3D printed parts and the controls of the VR glasses so that the feeling of grip, weight and obstacles were as close to reality as possible.
