N2 - Virtual Reality (VR) is emerging as an important tool in the industry sector to simulate human-machine interaction providing significant findings to improve occupational and industrial safety. In this paper several VR applications and tools developed for industries in the manufacturing and chemical sector are presented. These developments combine VR simulations, immersive 3D dynamic simulation and motion capture, addressing risk assessments in the design process, in normal operation and training.
