BAE Systems Submarines, helped by Virtalis, the advanced visualisation specialists, is currently deploying advanced visualisation facilities for the manufacture of the Astute Class of submarine in Barrow-in-Furness, England. It is thought that this is the very first 'manufacturing floor' use of Stereo VR. Just as unusual is the fact that the cabin-based systems are being operated, not by the IT department, but by people whose main role is building the submarine.
