Virtual trainings in AR and VR
Train your staff immersive.
Design4real from Munich develops VR and AR training For companies. Whether an immersive application is useful depends on the learning objective, workflow, and location. We adapt the scenario, interaction, and feedback to your processes and learning objectives.
VR application for virtual training of nursing staff
In our VR application, nursing staff practice procedures in a safe simulation. For conversational situations, it displays EmpathAI, our AI-powered professional language training, a different approach. We explain further application areas below. VR training for industry.
Advantages of immersive training for companies
Trainings in a virtual environment
Transport your employees directly to their future work environment and enable realistic training for complex or even hazardous processes—safely, efficiently, and repeatably as often as desired.
Experiential learning with a wow effect
New knowledge is acquired best when it is combined with experiences. No medium is more emotionally moving than VR and AR — in lifelike simulations, students learn faster and more sustainably.
Train muscle memory and soft skills
With VR and AR, soft skill training such as diversity workshops can be conveyed just as well as practical work processes. Thanks to haptic controllers, participants learn through active physical interaction.
practicable XR technologies
Simulators have been established in industry and the military for years. Due to rapid development, immersive training solutions are now also affordable and versatile for small and medium-sized enterprises.
Learning through experimentation
Learning content can be conveyed in various ways – from reading and watching to trying it out yourself. The presentation compares different approaches to learning; it does not provide fixed memory quotas. What matters is whether employees can apply what they have learned and transfer it to their work situation.

Choosing the appropriate training format for the learning goal
VR is suitable when employees need to practice handling tools or making decisions in a realistic situation – for example, on a machine, in a maintenance scenario, or during a difficult conversation. Simulation makes processes repeatable and can reveal the consequences of errors without taking up ongoing operations or real people. AR, on the other hand, supports directly on-site: instructions and work steps appear in view, while the real object remains visible. 360-degree learning applications provide realistic environments and situations, but usually offer less free interaction. Which format is suitable depends on the learning goal, the activity, and the location of deployment. Only then do we determine interaction, devices, and the technical scope.
Measuring progress in a comprehensible way
A good learning concept sets out in advance what progress can be recognized. In a practical task, for example, order, completeness, or critical errors can be evaluated; in a communication training, other criteria are taken into account. The application can provide immediate feedback and enable further practice sessions. A brief evaluation after the scenario helps to discuss decisions and support the transfer to everyday work. This way, it can be assessed whether the simulation meets the learning goal and what content should be further developed.
More about virtual trainings
VR is suitable for situations where actions, decisions, or the handling of errors need to be practiced. AR focuses on supporting real-world work environments. 360-degree applications primarily convey locations, processes, and perspectives. Therefore, the selection criteria include the specific learning goal, the necessary level of interaction, and the environment in which the training will be used later. A brief needs analysis shows whether an existing standard solution is sufficient or whether processes, dialogues, and scenarios must be customized. The number of users, available devices, and subsequent evaluation also need to be factored into the planning early on.
Learning success cannot be measured by a general percentage. Before starting, appropriate criteria for the learning goal are set: In a safety scenario, this could be correctly performed steps or avoided errors; in a conversation training, it could be the reaction to different conversation patterns. The training can provide feedback, enable repetitions, and capture results for a later review. What is crucial is whether the practiced behavior can be transferred more safely and independently into practice. This makes it visible which content works and where further practice is needed.

Everything you need to know about virtual training
Virtual training offers time- and cost-efficient, location-independent training opportunities. They enable practical, experiential learning that is faster and more sustainable through the combination of experiences and knowledge acquisition. In addition, both soft skills and practical workflows can be trained effectively.
Virtual environments enable action-based learning where complex subjects can be spatially understood and experienced interactively. The learner receives immediate feedback, which increases learning success.
Both soft skill training such as diversity workshops and practical workflow training. Thanks to haptic controllers, participants learn the necessary movements through real physical interaction — an effective training of muscle memory and soft skills.
The technology of VR and AR has matured and become ready for use over the last five years, making it affordable for small and medium-sized enterprises as well. Simulators and virtual training can be created and deployed more cost-effectively.
360-degree learning tutorials offer cost-effective solutions for immersive learning with all-around views. They are easy to create using photos and can be used on headsets and PCs for a comprehensive learning experience.
AR Assisted Learning projects important information virtually directly onto the real object. This helps to avoid errors and enables more efficient working and learning through multitasking support.
Instant feedback is an essential advantage of virtual learning: learners can repeat workflows at their own pace. This immediate feedback improves memory performance and learning success.
