Successful Installation of Virtual Team Trainer Indonesia – VTTI

SZENARIS (www.szenaris.com) very successfully installed the first highly immersive team training platform in Indonesia. The future operators of the amphibious vehicle M3 from the manufacturer General Dynamics European Land Systems-Bridge Systems (www.gdels.com) will be trained holistically with the system.

At the beginning, the participants learn the theoretical basics using eLearning. Then they drive the amphibious vehicles individually on land and in the water. This is followed by the training of the land-water and water-land transition.

Virtual team training trains the interaction of several amphibious vehicles for the construction of ferries and bridges. The so-called raft commander, equipped with a VR headset, gives his commands by hand signals. The debriefing room is used for debriefing of the exercise, while the following group is already carrying out the next exercise in the simulator room.

Only when the participants have shown virtually that they can safely operate the vehicle and can construct ferries as a team, are allowed to move the 28-ton vehicles in real practice.

The first participants were enthusiastic about the holistic training system and the associated “safe” realistic virtual training. The main contractor of the full bridging amphibious system Excalibur Army (www.excaliburarmy.cz) from the Czech Republic, who is carrying out the first training in Indonesia, uses the system in a didactically and methodically exemplary manner and is very enthusiastic about the depth of simulation and the possibilities of the VTTI system from SZENARIS.
