Virtual Reality Systems are being widely used as a training platform to develop complex and highly demanding training tasks. Achieving sophisticated levels of realism for maintenance training crucial for assembly and disassembly is still daunting. We believe in adopting a strategic approach to manage the development of complex virtual training solutions, which we have perfected over the past fifteen years.
To meet the growing demand for virtual training solutions, The DiSTI Corporation has developed VE Studio®, a Virtual Maintenance & Operations Training Development Platform leveraged globally by industry leaders to refine their training processes.
What is Virtual Maintenance Training?
Virtual Maintenance Training is a subset of the numerous services offered by VE Studio®. By utilizing Virtual Maintenance Traning (VMT), one can streamline both physical and operational training.
Training their machine technicians and operators is paramount, particularly for industrial and military operators that handle complex equipment and machinery. Users can benefit from Virtual Maintenance Trainers to:
- Increase efficiency: information is provided exactly when and where it’s needed
- Reduce equipment downtime
- Reduce the risk of errors due to the availability of contextual information
- Increase safety
- Monitor and track performed operations
Unlike traditional training methods that utilize actual equipment, which can be costly, time-consuming, and equally dangerous, VMT allows maintenance personnel to train and learn processes either under supervision or by themselves without worrying about equipment availability. VMT drastically reduces the chances of damage to expensive equipment and offers the opportunity to learn rare/ complex procedures seamlessly.
The DiSTI Corporation is the leading provider of Virtual Maintenance Training and HMI solutions. Our virtual training development platform, VE Studio®, allows you to take advantage of the latest developments in Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, desktop, and mobile technologies. VE Studio® offers unique opportunities to develop and deploy projects to any device, anywhere.

Harness VE Studio®’s Powerful Productivity Tools
VE Studio® is equipped with powerful productivity tools and processes that streamline the development of any virtual training project. As a commercial off-the-shelf solution, VE Studio® is an unmatched powerhouse that no competing toolset can offer.
VE Studio + Unity
VE Studio® and Unity have combined resources to develop complex training solutions through an integrated production process. This proven process includes; requirement identification and analysis, source data collection, virtual environment development, automated software build, and regression testing. Then rendered on the world’s most popular real-time 3D development platform.
Fidelity Matrix
The foundation of VE Studio is a relational database core called the Fidelity Matrix (FM). This user-friendly database contains all requirements, 3D objects, 2D support equipment, environmental properties, behaviors, and constraints. The automated environment build and regression testing tools draw from the FM to construct and check the final environment.
