    Virtual Reality tools for goods, food and beverage irradiation at IPEN's facilities as a nuclear technology teaching motivation
    2019 - PALADINO, PATRICIA A.; SABUNDJIAN, GAIANE; CABRAL, EDUARDO L.L.; JULIÃO, ARTHUR P.
    In this research a full-fledged and complete Virtual Reality (VR) environment will be wholly developed and then deployed as a kind of innovative means of widespread divulgation of one topic of nuclear science and nuclear technology most interesting application and its teaching; viz, that related to goods, beverages and mainly food irradiation practices, simulating a virtually guided visit to some of IPEN’s facilities and its already installed and operational scientific equipment, namely, the GAMMACELL irradiator, firstly targeting undergraduate and last year high school students and then, later, the interested general public. In this way, several programs and whole VR platforms, such as Unity, are used as powerful, professional tools for games and videogames development and it is expected that the final product will be made available packaged as an instructive videogame to the community of committed and interested users. Therefore, in doing so, some contemporary reasoned and still debated pedagogical recommendations will be handled and met, hopefully increasing students’ curiosity and good aptitudes towards the disseminated use of nuclear technologies nowadays. It is hoped that perhaps a modest contribution against the many undeserved prejudices and odd misconceptions still remaining nowadays regarding nuclear science development, results and applications, will be abated.
