Know they’re ready

Practise the moment before it’s real.

Rail crews, young people near the tracks and Defence ground crews all face moments that are costly or unsafe to rehearse for real. We make them safe to practise, assess and repeat, until people are ready for the real thing.

Rail

From the yard to the platform edge.

Rail partners have halved labour costs for key training and cut time to competency, while thousands of trainees have been guided to sign-off. And the same tools now reach the public, starting with young people around Melbourne’s network.

Virtual reality

High fidelity and realistic interaction for the hands-on parts, without taking stock out of service.

Augmented reality on a tablet beside rail equipment

Augmented and hybrid

Digital content on real equipment, blended with VR and face-to-face training where the task needs it.

See how we sort a freight academy’s tasks between these tools in From task to tool.

Defence

Mission-critical procedures, rehearsed in any conditions.

We recreate aircraft and systems, their layout and how they behave, so ground crews get far more time on procedures that are costly or hard to practise with live assets.

  • Location, weather, time of day and faults chosen by the trainee or facilitator
  • Step-by-step guidance on the wrist, inside the scene
  • Commercial headsets instead of fixed simulators, so updates are fast
  • 3D models built to extend to new locations and tasks
