Virtual Reality Solutions
Immersive, hazard-free training that changes behaviour — and the memory lasts.
At an industry level, there are many more specific use cases and benefits of virtual reality. Our goal at DMLC is to be the most trusted name in the HSE industry — we aim for excellence, and we work to assure our clients' success and profitability in the future.
Zero harm and better productivity. DMLC offers the best VR solution for health and safety, harnessing cutting-edge technology to transform safety in the workplace. Our immersive training modules can be created and deployed rapidly across a business to fully engage the audience.
This immersive experience can lead to better memory retention, according to the results of a 2018 study published in the journal Virtual Reality. Our VR clients tend to have a specific health and safety challenge and require a simple, educational, immersive and non-language-based solution to help them engage with staff to reduce workplace incidents.
The learner can immerse themselves and physically practise within site-specific scenarios, without causing risk to themselves or property, and can be monitored and assessed until they have gained confidence.
Off-the-shelf solution
Ready-to-deploy modules for work at height, lifting, and plant and vehicle movement.
Bespoke solution
A completely tailored simulation where the VR environment can be a digital replica of your own premises or sites.
- VR can be designed using different perspectives of a potentially dangerous situation, so operatives experience the implications of their choices or actions — giving them a better understanding of a process that significantly aids in the reduction of workplace incidents.
- Current uses of VR in safety include hazard recognition, emergency situations and fall protection training.
- Recommended as a means to augment other kinds of training, typically in short durations with sessions lasting no more than 20 minutes.
- An effective stopgap between e-learning and live hands-on learning.
- Scalable, fully supported systems — from portable VR rigs all the way up to multi-user, warehouse-scale 3D projection VR showrooms.
- The learner can be immersed in a stimulating environment reflecting different real-world scenarios, even potentially hazardous ones, from the safety of their training facilities.
Virtual reality is the term used to describe a three-dimensional, computer-generated environment which can be explored and interacted with by a person. That person becomes part of this virtual world and is immersed within this environment, able to manipulate objects or perform a series of actions.
VR engages the senses and generates a reaction and a memory within a person that traditional 'chalk and talk' can never do. It essentially simulates hazardous and dangerous situations without taking people out of the comfort of an office environment or training room.
More importantly, the memory lasts — and so fundamentally supports positive behavioural change. It is this element of VR which makes it attractive as a training and communication tool.
