Abstract
This study investigates the efficacy of Virtual Reality (VR) in enhancing lean manufacturing training. By integrating VR with lean manufacturing principles, the aim is to compare performance and learning outcomes in traditional and lean scenarios. The research highlights the limitations of conventional training approaches in fully engaging learners and keeping pace with rapid technological advancements in manufacturing processes. Through the development of an interactive VR game focused on a stool manufacturing process, the study advances the use of PDCA framework to incorporate key lean manufacturing tools such as 5S Principles, Kanban, Poka-Yoke, and ergonomic improvements. The game development process is detailed, covering the preparation of 3D models, set up of virtual scenes, development of game function, design of user interface, and deployment. User testing reveals significant improvements in process efficiency and knowledge acquisition when employing lean-inspired scenarios within the VR environment. The study concludes with promising results, demonstrating the potential of VR in lean manufacturing training while also acknowledging the need for further research to validate these findings across a wider range of manufacturing processes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
