Hilti, known worldwide for construction products and services, is expanding its training offerings with virtual reality from NMY. Using an authentic digital replica of a real construction site, construction professionals and architects learn how to prevent and fight fires. VR training combines the flexibility of digital training with the physical experience of on-site training.
VR training complements traditional classroom training with immersive learning experiences. The entire course is designed as blended learning (classroom and e-learning) for construction professionals and architects. It combines the strengths of both learning methods.
VR encourages learners to take an active role in training. Instead of passively listening to a lecture or reading a text, VR allows learners to manipulate objects, make decisions, and perform actions in a realistically simulated environment. This immersion increases engagement and leads to better comprehension and recall.
Construction professionals experience fire safety in a digital twin of a real construction site. Since the motor memory is also activated, the information is particularly well remembered. This also helps get new employees up to speed faster.
Systematic VR training ensures consistency and compliance at all times. VR provides a consistent training experience for all users, regardless of location or time of training, and ensures that all participants receive the same quality of training.
A “train the trainer” concept ensures the safe and secure use of XR technologies at Hilti and its customers. NMY is the point of contact for all IT and training issues, providing 1st and 2nd level support.
In addition to resolving IT and training issues, NMY is also responsible for troubleshooting, maintenance and continuous optimization of the XR technologies, infrastructure, and training content.
“VR training is taking us into a new era of efficiency and safety. It seamlessly combines the convenience of digital learning with the realism of hands-on training. ”
I'd be happy to tell you more about the project and discuss how your idea can be turned into Virtual Reality-based training. I look forward to our exchange!
