With the development of virtual reality technology, portal slewing crane monitoring system is also gradually moving towards virtualization; virtual simulation laboratory software appeared in large numbers. After a comprehensive analysis of the domestic and foreign construction of virtual reality technology development status, this paper proposes a virtual reality method based on WPF technology. The specific content of this method is summarized as follows. Firstly, the portal slewing crane model was built by 3ds Max, which includes the undercarriage, cab, and main hook. Secondly, the scenes of the port are added, which includes the sea, the sky, and the port. Finally, we use WPF to create the virtual reality module of the portal slewing crane monitoring system. According to a group of performance tests, we can get the performance tests show that the WPF system could improve the CPU utilization and reduce the memory usage during simulating the 3D model of the portal slewing crane
