Train any time, any place

Benefit from a safe, but fully immersive environment.

  • Reduce the cost of training by up to 99%+ with low-cost, immersive learning environments to replace or supplement traditional training solutions
  • Increase training velocity and enable more trainees to become proficient in less time by using XR and VR training tactics
  • Optimize user engagement with a solution where trainees want to engage in and repeat exercises
  • Increase the value of existing part-task simulators with full field of view, immersive visuals using mixed reality technology
  • Reduce travel time and costs by training at the point of need, thanks to portability and reduced simulator size
  • Train effectively for the most dangerous scenarios in a completely safe immersive environment

 

Training every phase of flight.

  • Build skills from day one

    Foundational flight training

    Mixed reality enables student pilots to master maneuvers, navigation, and instrument procedures in safe, repeatable environments that accelerate their learning curve.
