A motor power supply includes a set of devices to control and protect both the motor and its power source. It performs five essential functions:

  • Disconnection
  • Switching
  • Short-circuit protection
  • Overload protection
  • Power control

Motor starters have many industrial applications—from starting a drill press to reversing a parking barrier.

An Immersive and Engaging Simulator

Using the camera of a smartphone or tablet, trainees can visualize a full-size motor starter directly in their real environment (office, home, meeting room), rendered in photorealistic 3D.

The realistic visuals, sound effects, and interactive alerts recreate the tension of a real-life situation—without any actual danger.

The simulator allows for free and repeated practice for up to 20 hours, through varied and educational training scenarios.

Learning Objectives

  • Understand the role and composition of each device in a motor starter system
  • Learn how to design, wire, and test different types of motor starters
  • Apply safe and effective electrical procedures

Target Audience

Professionals and technicians in electrical energy, automation, and maintenance fields.

An Immersive Mobile AR Simulator

This interactive augmented reality simulator is a digital twin of a real motor starter workbench. It powers a miniature conveyor belt to show the motor’s rotation direction.

Using a smartphone camera, learners can walk around and interact with a fully functional, life-sized training setup—directly in their real environment (office, home, training room). Mistakes are either corrected in real-time or lead to realistic consequences like a simulated motor fire—without any real danger.

3 Training Scenarios
  • Scenario 1 – Direct-on-line motor start (Level 1): guided step-by-step
  • Scenario 2 – Direct-on-line motor start (Level 2): autonomous practice with potential errors
  • Scenario 3 – Star-Delta start (Y-Δ): learn progressive motor starting

Why Choose This AR Training?

  • Full immersion: Augmented reality simulation in the trainee’s real-world space
  • No VR gear required: Works on smartphone or tablet
  • Zero physical risk: Safe training environment, accessible anywhere
  • Engaging learning: Mistakes are visible and corrected in real time
  • Repetitive practice: Up to 20 hours of open training to build solid reflexes
  • Compatible with your procedures: Can be adapted to your company’s protocols
