=== Multimedia Engineering ===
[[Software engineer]]s may use multimedia in [[Simulations#Computer simulators|computer simulations]] for anything from entertainment to [[training]], such as military or industrial training. Multimedia for [[Graphical user interface|software interfaces]] is often done as a collaboration between [[creative professional]]s and software engineers. Multimedia helps expand the teaching practices that can be found in engineering to allow for more innovative methods to not only educate  future engineers but to help evolve the scope of understanding of where multimedia can be used in specialized engineer careers like software engineers.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Chengbo |first1=Wang |last2=Hui |first2=Xiao |last3=Wen |first3=Shiting |title=SPSE — a model of engineering multimedia learning and training |journal=Multimedia Tools and Applications |date=January 2019 |volume=78 |issue=1 |pages=1149–1164 |doi=10.1007/s11042-018-6520-5 |s2cid=52058366 }}</ref>

Multimedia is also allowing major car manufacturers, such as [[Ford Motor Company|Ford]] and [[General Motors]], to expand the design and safety standards of their cars. By using a game engine and virtual reality glasses, these companies are able to test the safety features and the design of the car before a prototype is even made. Building a car virtually reduces the time it takes to produce new vehicles, cutting down on the time needed to test designs and allowing the designers to make changes in real time. It also reduces expenses since, with a virtual car, making real-world prototypes is no longer needed.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Manufacturing Cars with Virtual Reality|url=https://www.asme.org/topics-resources/content/manufacturing-cars-with-virtual-reality|access-date=2021-01-21|website=www.asme.org|language=en}}</ref>
