EV Vehicle Safety

Electrical vehicles or EVs represent new opportunities for automotive retailers and independent repair shops with technicians who understand how to safely service them. This requires learning about a completely new propulsion system, its components and the dangers of high voltage and how to safely work with it. This immersive simulation enables technicians, first responders and anyone within a repair facility to pre-train in a safe environment prior to working on or even accidental exposure to an EV. Using either an HMD like the Quest3 for a fully immersive experience or a mobile device with that option, the learner discovers the system, purpose and location of each component and safety best practices as set by ASE, the industry authority for technician certification. The spatial recognition and engagement in the VR simulation results is greater retention of the knowledge and awareness of the need for safe practices to avoid injury or death.
