We provide solutions dedicated to training and simulation activities for the military, law enforcement and private sector. Our virtual firing ranges, equipment for “force on force” exercises, systems for simulating engagement against drones and vehicles, and computerized audio and video analysis systems, are all designed to help improve the operational capabilities and safety of the trained personnel.
In addition to the technical aspect, we also place great emphasis on the pedagogical aspect of our training. Our solutions are supported by a wide range of pedagogical tools and techniques, such as interactive and immersive simulations, scenario-based training, and performance assessments. These tools are designed to ensure a certain, sustainable, and measurable development of the trained personnel. We continuously strive to improve our methods to achieve the best results possible for our customers.
Pedagogical Approach and Training Technologies
Audio Video Feedback
The simulated tools we use during training activities integrate advanced technologies that produce auditory, tactile, and visual feedback. These feedbacks allow increasing human proprioceptive abilities. Thanks to the precise and targeted use of these tools, it is possible to achieve training results superior to those obtainable with traditional tools in real situations. Various scientific studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of these methods, such as “Body-mind Sonification to Improve Players Actions in Sports” by Toshitaka Kimura, Takemi Mochida, Tetsuya Ijiri, and Makio Kashino, and “Virtual reality training improves balance function” by Yurong Mao, Peiming Chen, Le Li, and Dongfeng Huang, M.D. We are proud to offer these cutting-edge technologies to improve learning and training of proprioceptive abilities.
Improvement by approximation: the gradual approach
The concept of improvement by approximation refers to the gradual and progressive approach to improving one’s abilities or skills. Instead of trying to achieve perfection immediately, one starts with small and consistent steps, and gradually increases the difficulty over time. This can be applied in many areas, such as sports, professional development, and personal life. The advantage of this approach is that it allows for sustainable learning and improvement, avoiding burnout or feeling discouraged by difficulties. Additionally, it allows for achieving long-term goals in a consistent and continuous manner.
Fostering a Safe and Collaborative Learning Environment: The Key to Rapid and Meaningful Improvement
An effective training environment is characterized by creating a safe and prejudice-free learning environment. In this context, participants feel free to express their ideas and feelings without fear of being judged, and they know they can count on the trust of other participants. This allows for the creation of a collaborative and cooperative group dynamic, where people can learn and improve more quickly and significantly. In an environment where trust and respect are valued, participants feel more motivated to express their potential and share their knowledge and skills with others, creating a continuous and reciprocal learning environment.
Using Audio and Video Recording Tools for Post-Training Analysis: Effective Improvement and Reduced Learning Times
We also use high-reliability audio and video recording tools to conduct post-training analysis. This approach allows us to gather a large amount of data, analyze it, and then present it to students, thereby reducing learning times. Often, students who make mistakes are not aware of them and their ego pushes them to ignore the advice of instructors. The ability to review oneself in a video allows for the understanding of mistakes and avoiding the negative involvement of one’s ego. This method allows for a more efficient, fast and effective learning process and improvement.
There are several scientific articles that support the use of audio and video recording tools for post-training analysis. For example, a study titled “The Use of Video Feedback to Enhance Motor Learning and Performance: A Meta-Analysis” (L. M. Williams & D. W. Ward, 2007), which examined the effects of using video feedback in motor learning and performance, found that the use of video feedback can significantly improve learning and performance. Another article titled “The role of self-observation and verbal feedback in skill acquisition” (K. R. Newell & J. E. Sheridan, 1992) explores the use of video feedback in skill acquisition and has shown that video feedback is effective in improving performance.
