DoD Trainee explores immersive scene with VR headset and controllers

TRAINEE: EXPERIENCE THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR ACTIONS

inCommand, powered by the XVR’s On-Scene, is an off-the-shelf interactive 3D incident command and control simulation for tactical and procedural level training. The trainee experiences the event through practical application by training in an immersive realistic virtual environment, without the dangers, costs, and time associated with traditional in-field training. Maximize the learning within a controlled and predictable setting through repeatable scenarios, controlled by programmable events, with the agility of dynamic instructor input.

Let the trainee experience it for themselves, through the consequences of their actions, allowing them to retain those “soft-skills” for those high-pressure, low frequency, situations. For all levels of experience, levels of training, simple to complex, inCommand meets the challenge.

TRAINER: READY TO TRAIN OUT-OF-THE-BOX

TRAIN: Implement your training program out-of-the-box, configurable with various training modules, inCommand is delivered with a comprehensive library of pre-built evolutions. Total flexibility within the Train application enables the instructor to semi-automate the evolution through pre-programmed Events, while still having full control over the exercise, enabling one to react to the trainee’s decisions.

REVIEW: Through the powerful After Action Review system the instructor can review the trainee’s performance. Rewind the scenario and let the trainee relive the experience to understand the consequences of their actions.

BUILD: As instructor proficiency is gained, the user can expand the library using the included Build application. Modify any pre-built scenario, out of the library, or build your own from scratch. Create your own locations and landmarks.

All-Hazards Emergency Management “Continuum of Training"

FAAC’s Continuum of Training is a complete set of fire, emergency, and rescue training simulators and scenarios. Any of our simulators can stand alone or be combined in networked simulation systems, allowing entire teams to work together in a single immersive training simulation. Simulations can even span multi-agency/multi-discipline incidents, allowing incident commanders to work through complex decision-making processes under dynamic conditions.

All participants will experience the same immersive scenario that may include law enforcement, EMS, fire and ARFF apparatus operation, pump operations, incident command, and even hands-on firefighting or rescue operations using state-of-the-art VR technology.

Each customizable scenario can include a variety of settings and a range of weather conditions. Each can be modified by the instructor at any time to meet your unique training needs. You can change the weather and visibility mid-scenario or take joystick control of pedestrians, animals, or onlookers to simulate the many ways a real incident scene can be unpredictable.

The Continuum of Training system makes hands-on practical emergency incident training safe, cost-effective, and dynamic. You can run disciplined, cost-efficient, fail-safe, full-team training in any weather while keeping all equipment units in service and without disrupting your community or facility, risking injury to personnel, or exposing equipment to wear-and-tear.

Fire, Rescue, and Emergency Simulator Customer-for-Life

We invest time in understanding your needs, then work closely with your team to develop and deliver the appropriate fire and emergency training simulation solution. We can help you find the best way to integrate this user-friendly solution into your firefighting, rescue, and incident command training procedures. Most importantly, we will support you in maintaining and evolving this solution as your challenges inevitably change over time.
