You asked, we actioned! VASCO Supported was born on the back of the industry telling us that; 'We love the tech, but it must be supported by 3rd party specialist instructors, independent of the vessel/organisation'.
Seafarers join our Immersive VR Bridge, VASCO, via Meta Quest headsets, from a geographical location of their choice. Connection is via a Wi-Fi or mobile phone hotspot, it couldn’t be easier.
They will join a fully immersive and interactive bridge environment, where after rapid onboarding, they will immediately commence navigational training, manoeuvring the vessel through a series of scenarios with differing levels of complexity, appropriate to the need.
The sense of being there is immediate. This multi-user training environment is revolutionising how training and assessment in bridge resource management together with collision regulations can be delivered..
