The future of training: why immersive solutions are essential

Find out why immersive solutions transforming vocational training. From interactive and effective experiences for trainers and learners, with reduced ecological impact.

Today, IRWINO explores the reasons why so-called immersive learning are essential for the future of training, with an emphasis on environmental issues, environmental and urbanparticularly in the context of fire training.

Years of experimentation and technological advances have progressively demonstrated that immersive solutions have become the preferred choice in the industry. essential for training. Their educational effectivenesscombined with their positive impact on the environment and their logistical flexibilityThis has made it an unavoidable choice for companies and training organizations alike. Legal and environmental constraints reinforce this trend.

In this context, immersive solutions are becoming increasingly popular. educational tools offering realistic training courses that respond to the needs of our customers. environmental challenges and logistics.

Virtual reality training: irwino's unique approach

Ecological and environmental challenges

Reducing carbon footprint

Visit traditional training often involve extensive travel, generating a considerable carbon footprint significant. The use of immersive solutions such as those from IRWINO helps to reduce this footprint by replacing physical training with online training. virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR).

For example, FIRE VR, a fire training simulatorreplaces real fire extinguishers by virtualized versionsFIRE VR has enabled us to reduce the consumption of resources and the production of waste. FIRE VR has made it possible to training up to 150 trainees in a single day, optimizing teaching efficiency while minimizing environmental impact.

Urban restrictions and space constraints

L'urbanization complicates the organization of training courses requiring great spacessuch as handling fire extinguishers. Some municipalities refuse parking permits for mobile units fire training.

Visit immersive environments offer a viable alternative, with several advantages:

  • Eliminate the logistical burden of bulky equipment
  • Training can be carried out in small spaces (1.5m x 1.5m is sufficient)
  • Quick installation (less than 5 minutes)
  • Increased safety: no exposure to real fires or dangerous chemicals

Immersive Learning: the solution to new challenges

Faced with the demands environmental and legalcompanies need to innovate when it comes to training. L'immersive learningbased on VR and AR, reduces the need to travel and the use of physical resources, thus meeting ecological and regulatory imperatives.

The future of vocational training

Professional training is undergoing a major transformation with the rise of immersive solutions. The RV and the RA are revolutionizing learning by offering engaging and interactive experiences.
