New platform for safety educations will be launched at Euro Mine Expo
Innan AB has taken safety education to a new level by combining their experience in safety with Virtual Reality. By utilizing VR, the education can be held in environments mimicking the real world, but without putting the participants in real danger.
“We build a virtual environment where the participants can test their skills in various scenarios without any risks for themselves, the equipment or the environment. In addition, it is very cost efficient. ” says Nicklas Karlsson, CEO Innan AB who has developed the solution.
Innan AB will demonstrate two scenarios during Euro Mine Expo – putting out a fire and getting to a rescue chamber. Each scenario will be 3-4 minutes long and besides VR glasses and headphones, the participant will use props, such as fire extinguishers. “Our concept is unique as it encompasses visual, audible and tactile senses by using also props, which is something few others do today.” Says Nicklas.
The props, - fire extinguisher – is equipped with a motion sensor similar to those used in computer games and the technology used is HTC Vive. The development is done in Skellefteå and the future contains more scenarios for various industries and the opportunity for customers to tailor the education to their environment. As example, the mine could be filmed and used as a virtual exercise area.
“It’s interesting when new technology leads to innovative ideas and we are happy to see Innan AB choosing Euro Mine Expo for launching their new product.” says Jaana Tengman, project manager Euro Mine Expo.
