3D technology can transform the HR profession by enabling job simulations. A clear example: evaluating a candidate for a factory operator position using a digital twin of the workshop. Instead of asking about their experience, they are asked to perform virtual tasks. Programs like Unity, Blender, and VR platforms like VIVE Business are needed.
Body scanning and avatars to assess ergonomics and soft skills 🧑💼
With 3D scanners like the Artec Eva, HR can capture the employee's morphology and design custom workstations. For soft skills, platforms like Talespin or Mursion generate avatars that react in real time. The candidate negotiates with a virtual client while sensors measure their tone of voice and gestures. Everything is recorded in analysis dashboards, reducing biases in the traditional interview.
When the boss becomes a low-poly character 😂
The fun part comes when the HR director demands a high-definition avatar of themselves for interviews. It turns out the 3D scanner captured their resting face, which looks like a 90s video game troll. Now every candidate sees their future boss blinking with Play-Doh textures. Sure, the candidate doesn't know whether to laugh or run away, but at least the interview is unforgettable.
