The Raymond Corp., Green, N.Y., launched a virtual reality (VR) simulator to assist in the development of new and existing forklift operators.
The Raymond Virtual Reality Simulator allows users to enter a simulated warehousing environment utilizing an existing Raymond forklift truck by plugging into the company’s patent-pending simulation port (sPort). After the vehicle is no longer needed for instruction, the sPort can be disconnected and the forklift can be placed back into operation in the warehouse.
