1. A method for generating an immersive virtual reality(VR) platform for workers of dangerous mining, oil, and gas worksites to provide training or certification programs replete with a plurality of sensors to detect and correct knowledge gaps and prevent life threatening situations, all confined within the safety of a virtual reality worksite, comprising:

  • generating a VR resource extraction worksite including virtual dangers and massive virtual industrial machines;

    displaying the VR resource extraction worksite to a user with a head mounted device including sensors;

    tracking the user with the head mounted device and sensors as the user navigates the VR resource extraction worksite completing tasks and interacting with the virtual dangers and massive virtual industrial machines using a combination of eye contact detection, hand gestures, and heavy machinery remote controls;

    identifying incorrect machine procedures and neglected virtual dangers as compared to a rubric of best practices;

    collecting biometric data including stress response, heart rate, and fear of the user while the user performs tasks in the VR resource extraction worksite;

    generating an evaluation of the user according to the best practices rubric, the evaluation concerning safety procedures, equipment operating procedures, and awareness of latent dangers such as electrocution, burns, downing, impact and crushing hazards; and

    presenting the evaluation to the user to improve work performance and safety.
