Having adopted Virtual Reality (VR) technology in recent years, Air France has decided to take a further step into a fully immersive solution for their cabin crew training provided by Bolverk XR.
Real-life challenges as well as critical situations that take place onboard an aircraft can be trained repeatedly in a safe environment through virtual reality.
“Nowadays, more and more personal devices are being carried onboard by passengers creating new challenging situations for cabin crew to handle,” said Bolverk XR Sales Director, Christophe Nagy. “For example, a lithium battery fire needs to be taken care of rapidly and efficiently for the security of the flight. With the fully immersive VR environment, trainees can work on emergency scenarios in teams on the same virtual aircraft at the same time, which would be very challenging and costly to replicate in the real world.”
“For many years, Air France has been working to see how our cabin crew can benefit from innovative technologies to efficiently train for critical emergency situations," said Air France Head of Digital Learning & Innovation for Cabin Crew, Alexandre Chiriac. “Upon the success of this first training scenario, we plan to expand VR training to other essential topics in the future.”
