The Effectiveness Of Metaverse System Technology Based On Heavy Machine Virtual Tour

Abstract

This study evaluated the effectiveness of Metaverse technology in heavy machinery training based on virtual tours. The study used a quasi-experimental design involving 60 students from the Faculty of Technical and Vocational Education (FPTV), Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM), who were divided into an experimental group (Metaverse training) and a control group (conventional training). Data were collected using pre- and post-training questionnaires and analyzed using paired t-tests. These results suggest that the experimental group performed significantly better after the intervention compared to the control group. This study suggests that metaverse system technology based on heavy machine virtual tour can be an effective alternative training method in technical fields, especially heavy machinery operation.
