Virtual Reality Training for Post-Earthquake Rescue Operators.
Urban Search And Rescue (USAR) personnel need to be appropriately trained to effectively operate in post-disaster conditions, as they need to quickly identify locations where the presence of survivors is more likely. Currently, the training procedure for this kind of triage is based on showing static pictures presenting different types of building collapses accompanied by cards providing additional environmental information. This article presents VRescue, a simulator for training USAR operators using the paradigm of immersive virtual reality (VR). VRescue recreates a range of operation conditions (day/night, presence of people, dangerous locations, etc.) experienced by real rescuers, and enables learning the use of the equipment commonly used in such scenarios.
