The Spanish rail operator ADIF has chosen Virtualware to create their new generation of virtual reality (VR) training simulators railway infrastructure, construction and maintenance operations.
ADIF will invest close to €1 million (EUR) in transforming its simulation modules utilizing VR technology as the base to set its new workforce training program standards. Besides integrating Virtualware’s VIROO platform to explore the full capabilities of extended reality (XR) and VR in particular, a central element of the agreement is the construction of an immersive room in Valencia, Spain. The space is destined to become ADIF’s centre to conduct and improve training processes in lifelike immersive multi-user environments.
Through the VIROO platform, ADIF will have an infrastructure and set of tools to control its training content, management and deployment while forging its ecosystem and innovation initiatives in XR.
The VIROO platform and its room component will equip ADIF to transform its current training program while reducing cost, risk, and time by improving learning processes and trainees’ performance in 1:1 scale collaborative VR environments. The room itself will allow ADIF to connect its facility and collaborate with other external and owned VIROO hubs in different locations worldwide, elevating their ongoing exploration of hybrid –onsite and remote- workspaces powered by VIROO.
