In this fascinating episode, we sit down with Joel Albertson & Suresh Subawickrama from Iris Engineering to explore how gaming technology, AI, and immersive visualization are revolutionizing the world of energy and engineering.What started as a hydrogen and renewables company quickly evolved into something groundbreaking. As Joel recalls, “We had to show our stakeholders what it looked like… a lot of people might say, okay, solar, wind, not in my backyard, right? Or they might say, hey, that just looks too complicated.” The solution? Bringing engineering to life with Unreal Engine, allowing clients to walk through designs in photorealistic 3D before they’re even built.Suresh shares how their work took an unexpected turn: “People started requesting models just to see what things would look like, but then it became repeat work. Then they wanted extra functionality—‘What can we do with light? What can we do with training? What if we could operate before we operate?’” What followed was a game-changing shift in how complex energy projects are designed, tested, and trained for using interactive simulations.In this episode, you’ll witness the future of engineering:🎮 Virtual walkthroughs where engineers can “play it like a video game” before breaking ground⚡ AI-powered simulations that cut costs and optimize efficiency🔧 Physics-based training tools that let workers test real-world scenarios—before stepping foot on siteJoel puts it best: “Just imagine—you’re an oil and gas company, you’ve designed an offshore facility, and at 50% design review, you can actually walk through it. You can touch equipment, test workflows, and see every detail as if you were there.”It’s engineering like you’ve never seen before—more immersive, more efficient, and more intuitive than ever. Don't miss this deep dive into how Iris Engineering is reshaping the industry with technology that feels straight out of a video game—but with real-world impact.
