Original Abstract

This paper describes the development of an industrial process simulation application that is used for educational purposes. It is based on the Unity game engine and Game4Automation plugin, which offers a base framework and assets to establish the industrial process in a virtual environment. The application is then connected via Modbus TCP to a project created in the CODESYS programming environment, which is also responsible for the simulation of a control system - PLC.
