Overview
Welcome and thank you for your purchase of the FLAIM Trainer™ virtual reality fire training
package from FLAIM Systems.
This manual should get you on your way in no time and is aimed at trainers with a minimal
understanding of virtual reality. The FLAIM Trainer™ system is not designed to replace hot
fire training, but instead allow experiential learning through a number of practical scenarios
developed to improve dynamic thinking, risk assessment, radio messaging, muscle memory,
hose handling technique and nozzle control. As the scenario library evolves, new training
methodologies can be adapted allowing both novice and experienced fire fighters to
develop their skillsets in a safe, repeatable and realistic way.
Of course, the FLAIM System can also be used to train the public in the dangers of fire and
allow them to appreciate the work that you do.
FLAIM Trainer™ provides firefighters the capacity to train situations and scenarios that are:
•
Inherently unsafe and difficult to reproduce.
•
No longer possible due to environmental, community and regulatory constraints.
•
Incur significant training cost in time, people and assets.
FLAIM Trainer™ places firefighters in the most realistic training scenario available by utilising
several customised elements:
•
Head Mounted Display:
Breathing apparatus (SCBA) kit incorporates a head
mounted virtual reality (VR) display.
•
Nozzle:
Hose-line system provides realistic jet or nozzle reaction force.
•
Protective Clothing:
Personal protective clothing with heat generation components.
Once again, thank you for your support.
The FLAIM Systems Team.
