Project: AVATAR – Advanced Virtual Aptitude and Training Application in Real Time
| Acronym | AVATAR (Reference Number: FORESTVALUE-069) |
| Duration | 01/03/2019 - 01/03/2022 |
| Project Topic | The objective of AVATAR is to complement operator training programmes, such as the Rational Efficient Cost Optimization (RECO), through the development of quantitative support tools. These tools will analyse harvester and forwarder operator’s pre- and post-training work through machine control systems and sensor technology, and compile directed feedback to guide the operator towards more balanced working methods and techniques. |
