Immersive VR Construction Safety Training | ILOSH
Axis3D developed a VR construction safety training system with motion interaction, simulating high-risk scenarios to enhance experiential learning and improve safety awareness.
Client Background
The Institute of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health (ILOSH), under Taiwan’s Ministry of Labor, is dedicated to researching and promoting workplace safety policies and training tools, actively adopting innovative technologies to build safer work environments.
Client Needs
To improve the effectiveness and retention of traditional construction safety training, the client sought a portable, immersive virtual site system. It would allow trainees to experience various safety hazards without real-world risks, strengthening both preventive awareness and emergency response
Our Solutions
Axis Technology developed a comprehensive virtual construction training system with two interactive modules, supporting multiple platforms and devices:
Hazard Recognition Module – Eight common worksite scenarios (crane, elevator shaft, steel structure, rooftop, etc.) for trainees to identify potential risks in VR.
Accident Simulation Module – Fall, electrocution, and fire scenarios enhanced with visuals and haptic feedback to reinforce impact and memory.
Cross-Platform Support – Runs on Windows PCs and Android devices, compatible with HTC Vive, Meta Oculus, and Cardboard, enabling flexible deployment.
Outcomes
The system has been applied in occupational safety training programs, with trainees reporting strong immersion and memorable hazard scenarios. It improved participation rates and knowledge retention, serving as a government model case for applying VR in safety training.
