In educational school, students in engineering or material affiliated courses will come across machineries that do preparation of workpiece to meet the design parameters. But due to the space constraints and tide lesson schedules, not all students can get to interact with all the machineries at least before they start working in their relevant fields. Therefore, in this case, Virtual Reality had chosen as one of the options to introduce the machineries. Virtual Reality had becoming very common as the technology advances, with more devices invented to detect hand gesture for user to interact with the Virtual World, making this project possible. Due to the time duration given to pick up new programs and the Virtual World to work, the project will be focusing only on Drill Press Machine. The three-main aspect of this project aims to introduce how the Drill Press Machine works, the basic setup procedures for Drill Press Machine and safety while using the Drill Press Machine.
