OBJECTIVE

To Improve the understanding of key steps for divers and support teams operating in confined spaces.

APPROACH

A highly realistic VR headset training experience for diving professionals and teams.

The Problem

• Diving is a potentially hazardous activity that can lead to safety incidents if procedures are not correctly followed.
• Traditional training methods are labor intensive, dangerous, costly and time consuming.

The solution

SHIIFT created immersive training solution deployed via a VR headset for end users to train and mission rehearse in a safe environment, prior to getting into the water.

Features include:

• Multi-player VR solution covering familiarization and training for divers enabling team members to train collaboratively within the same scenario.
• Photo-realistic scenes of environments and equipment that enable repetition, practice and mission rehearsal prior to operations.

What started out as a ‘nice to have’ concept developed by the SHIIFT team and supported by the MOD’s J-Hub incubator, has now become an essential requirement for aspects of defense diver training.
