Mowbray Partners are seeking to transform training within the Public Safety and Policing sector. Their challenge was to understand how immersive and digital technologies might be used to achieve economies of scale or create a learning environment that is both effective and inspiring. 3Rs Immersive have been able to help them evaluate the possibilities offered by VR and AR in sector-specific training as well as supporting them more broadly in creating and sourcing digital training solutions; bidding for innovation funding; project-managing the creation of innovative learning solutions and advising on stakeholder communication regarding immersive technologies.
As Head of the Immersive technical team at Pearson Jo was responsible for the design and building of products in MR, VR and 360. Initial user research centred around identifying key learning outcomes by working with teachers, instructors and learners to evaluate their needs and the key technologies to meet those needs. Jo led the team in producing products in 360 video for Higher Education, vocational mixed reality training products using Microsoft HoloLens and collaborated on VR training products for Oculus Rift and mobile AR for iOS and Android. At the heart of Jo’s approach was the need to produce products that not only looked good but were pedagogically valid and commercially sound.
