At the same time, they are characterized by a complex IT infrastructure that can only be integrated and adapted to a limited extent for research activities in the area of human-computer interaction. Previous work has already shown that virtual reality simulators of control rooms can be a suitable tool for these purposes. However, the solutions to date are very domain-specific, which makes it difficult to transfer knowledge and also to test aspects that are not primarily domain-specific (e.g., multimodal forms of interaction). This paper presents the concept of a domainindependent control room simulator and the development status regarding two use cases (build mode, simulation mode). Finally, further development and use of this approach are discussed.enVirtual RealityControl RoomSafety-Critical SystemsSimulatorText/Workshop Paper10.18420/muc2022-mci-ws10-291
