Studies have shows that trainees can have up to 75% more effectiveness when trained in XR iterative training.
Advanced use of the emerging medium
Deliver anywhere, anytime training, reducing travel costs through synchronous or asynchronous training modules.
Safety
Provide the most effective safety training, simulating hazards and dangers without true hazard or danger.
Cost effective
Simulate sophisticated technology, reducing acquisition costs and production losses associated with taking equipment offline for training purposes.
Immersion aids recall
Those trained in VR have shown a 28% better information recall and made 41% fewer errors than those trained non-VR.
Unprecedented Learning.
Advanced Proficiency.
For the first time, immersive and very realistic experiences can be designed that accurately simulate the workplace. Whether it’s a laboratory machine, an assembly line robotic, or a customer service kiosk, we can create compelling three dimensional spaces and situations that optimize training like never before.
Users can repeat to achieve expected proficiency. They may fail without risking customer satisfaction or product quality. They may even experience dangerous situations with no real danger, empowering them with know-how when in hazardous conditions. Practice in Virtual Reality produces better real-world performance.
