The Flamecoach is a new digital solution for practical fire protection training. It benefits from a combination of haptic handlings with a real fire extinguisher and the save digital opportunities of virtual reality. Thus the actual use of the fire extinguisher is the normal approach, only the extinguishing of the fire takes place in the virtual space. Due to this, we can achieve a direct reference between the fire as well as their triggers and a work relevant environment.

To bring the simulation even further to life we have also included further haptic simulations like the heat and smell simulation. This guarantees the inclusion of all important senses when it comes to fire and enables users to feel and smell the fire before they might have even located the flames.
The Flamecoach is an easy and portable system. Since we are working without real flames it can be comfortably be set up inside rooms. On top of that, we also do not require additional refill or maintenance time. Therefore the Flamecoach provides a time-efficient and sustainable chance for a modern training approach. Employees can be trained within a group or individually within a short time frame.

Watch the consequences of a fire and experience for the first time, how quickly it can get out of control and how dense and dangerous the blanket of smoke can become while being in the mid of the situation. Of course, there are no real dangers and health concerns as the whole simulation takes place in our virtual environments.
By experiencing the consequences of a fire we can improve the trainees' motivation to take action in a real emergency while also training them how to act correctly and on time.
