Igloo For Simulation

Immerse yourself in any scenario

With Igloo, you can immerse entire teams in the centre of any situation.

Using wraparound sound and vision, you can recreate realistic scenarios. And, thanks to the flexibility of our technology, you can port your existing image generators, simulation software or training assets directly to the Igloo platform.

And by using a shared immersive space for your simulations, you can bring in all kinds of physical props or include actors to heighten the realism - from firefighting equipment to training manikins.

Risk and crisis training
A risk-free way to experience hazardous situations.

An open platform to run all your existing simulation content – and enhance it

Many existing simulation systems are Igloo-ready – or can be easily adapted to run on the Igloo platform.

And, thanks to the flexibility of the layer-based Immersive Media Player, we can work with you to enhance your existing content. For example, we have worked with some clients to create interactive visual scenarios for their existing process simulators. We have also enabled clients to link their content to Google Street View data.

Engaging, entertaining, instructive and inclusive

An Igloo is far more effective and engaging than any flat-screen, desk-bound equivalent. Compared to VR headsets, it’s a collaborative environment where entire teams can discuss and interact at the centre of the scenario. You can reduce the need for physical visits to hazardous or faraway sites.

Simulated training scenarios are easily repeatable and far more cost-effective than real-life equivalents - for example, this is just why Mid Sweden University chose Igloo to research crisis scenarios with realistic simulations.

Don't take our word for it

What do our clients think?

“The flexibility, dynamic deployment and low-cost nature of Igloo were immediate attractions. The rapid repurposing of content such as 3D Unity demonstrations, high definition 360° images and existing video made it even more attractive.”

“It will really help the incident commanders think about their situational awareness, they really need to be able to see what's going on all the way around them."

“With the Igloo, you get that group feel, so you get to engage with other members of your team, you can see their reactions, and you discuss things as you go through the programmes. I think that’s the reason why the Igloo really works.”
