VR/AR Forest Worker Training
This training provides an immersive experience for workers who perform high-risk wildfire mitigation activities, such as tree thinning, brush clearing, pruning, and site preparation. Within this virtual world, participants are asked to make decisions and implement best practices to protect their health and wellbeing. The training can be delivered on multiple delivery platforms. The VR headset and mobile platforms have the advantage of being fully functional without internet connectivity. The activity worksheets provide a forum for discussing and identifying workplace hazards and controls.
