Virtual Reality (VR) technology is increasingly being used in workplace training to help reduce the time and costs associated with traditional training methods. One application of VR technology in the workplace is the use of Matterport for workplace familiarization, particularly for jobs in the food and beverage (F&B), retail, logistics, and other skill-based industries.
Matterport is a platform that uses 3D technology to create virtual models of real-world environments. This technology allows users to navigate and explore these virtual environments in a highly immersive and realistic way, which can be used for training purposes. Using Matterport, employees can be trained in their job roles without the need for physical equipment, locations or products.
For F&B workers, Matterport can simulate a virtual restaurant, allowing new employees to explore and familiarize themselves with the kitchen, dining area, and other areas of the establishment. By allowing employees to navigate through a virtual environment, they can learn and memorize the layout of the restaurant and the location of equipment, utensils, and other materials needed for their jobs.
In the retail industry, Matterport can simulate a virtual store, allowing employees to navigate through the store and familiarize themselves with the products, layout, and procedures of the store. This allows employees to learn how to interact with customers, stock shelves, and handle transactions in a realistic and immersive environment.
For logistics workers, Matterport can simulate a virtual warehouse, allowing employees to navigate through the warehouse and learn the layout of the storage space, the location of products, and the procedures for handling and transporting goods.
Matterport can also be used for various skill-based jobs such as construction, manufacturing, and healthcare. For example, in construction, Matterport can simulate a virtual job site, allowing workers to familiarize themselves with the layout, equipment, and procedures of the site. This can help workers to identify and address safety concerns, and to learn how to operate equipment and use tools in a safe and efficient manner.
Adept Learning Technologies deploy the use of virtual reality orientation for workplace familiarization through Matterport technology and can help to reduce training time and costs, while also providing a highly effective and immersive learning experience for employees. By allowing workers to navigate through virtual environments, they can learn how to perform their jobs in a safe and efficient manner, without the need for physical equipment or locations. This technology represents a significant advance in workplace training, and has the potential to revolutionize the way that employees are trained in various industries.
