Desarrollo de un prototipo para simular escenas predefinidas para la identificación de materiales peligrosos, para la Academia de Bomberos de la ciudad de Guayaquil.

Abstract

This degree work proposes to analyze the different tools to design predefined scenes and develop the proposed simulator for its correct implementation, achieved with the understanding of the definitions, the programming languages and the different concepts related to dangerous materials explained by experts in the area. Mixed methodology was applied, to determine, through the survey technique with the questionnaire tool developed using the Google Forms software, the experience if it was similar to reality and the degree of satisfaction of the students in handling the simulator. The development of the solution was based on the traditional methodology, to request all the requirements, then carry out its design to show through functional screens and then carry out tests to verify what is required by the instructor of the subject on dangerous materials. The tool for designing the assets or images was Adobe Illustrator and for the retouching of the images, in addition to removing the white background, Adobe Photoshop. As for, the tool chosen for the development of the simulator was Unity, in which all the designs made to set up the scene, both horizontally and vertically, were used, where the case was recreated, as desired by the instructor. After the simulation, questions with multiple options were developed to verify their knowledge regarding the simulated case. In conclusion, it was possible to implement the simulator on the identification of dangerous materials, which allows students to have another perspective, act quickly and in a timely manner in emerging cases.
