\r\n\t\"Instructor\t

Instructor Station<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The Instructor Station constitutes the link between the Simulator and the Instructor.<\/div>\t<\/a><\/div>
\r\n\t\"Observation\t

Observation Station<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
If you want to make each simulation a learning opportunity for more than just one trainee, the Observation Station is the ideal solution.<\/div>\t<\/a><\/div>
\r\n\t\"Preparation\t

Preparation Station<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The Preparation Station consists of a two-screen computer equipped with our simulation management software R\u00b3.<\/div>\t<\/a><\/div>
\r\n\t\"Virtual\t

Virtual Train<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
With the Virtual Train, trainees can navigate through the entire vehicle and learn troubleshooting procedures.<\/div>\t<\/a><\/div>
\r\n\t\"Motion\t

Motion System<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
From 3 to 6\u00a0DOF, we provide any motion system to meet your\u00a0needs.<\/div>\t<\/a><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n

Communication System<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n
\r\n\t\"Control\"\t

Control<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The instructors can take control of the simulator and start, pause, replay or stop the simulation session. They can monitor exercises in real-time and alter a training exercise by introducing real-time events during the training session.<\/div>\t<\/div>
\r\n\t\"Supervision\"\t

Supervision<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The instructor station allows for dynamic supervision on different simulators at the same time. Instructor walls make it possible to supervise different simulators at once.<\/div>\t<\/div>
\r\n\t\"Mobility\"\t

Mobility<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
Students can be monitored away from the instructor Operating Station with a portable tablet device. The instructor can launch all types of communication with his students from the tablet, without needing to sit at his instructor station.<\/div>\t<\/div>
\r\n\t\"Communication\"\t

Communication<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The communication touch screen makes it possible to communicate in real-time with trainees, as an instructor, dispatcher or controller. A microphone and high-end loudspeakers also allow communication with the driver.<\/div>\t<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n

Observation Facilities<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n
\r\n\t\"Peer\t

Peer learning<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The observation facilities offer trainees the opportunity to learn from each other as they follow their peers driving.<\/div>\t<\/div>
\r\n\t\"Larger\t

Larger audience<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The observation facilities also serve as a platform for the instructors to share their knowledge in real-time. Thanks to their tablet device, they will be able to manage simulators while commenting sessions in front of the observer wall.<\/div>\t<\/div>
\r\n\t\"Time\t

Time optimisation<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
Trainees can optimise their time while they are waiting for their turn on a simulator with peer learning.<\/div>\t<\/div>
\r\n\t\"Debriefing\"\t

Debriefing<\/h3>\r\n\t\t
The facilities are also useful for group debriefing and demonstrations by experienced drivers as you can replay sessions on the wall.<\/div>\t<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n

Preparation Station<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>
\n

The instructor can prepare new scenarios thanks to the preparation desk. It allows creating<\/strong>, editing <\/strong>and saving <\/strong>exercises, before, during and after a simulation session, without resorting to the mock-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With our simulation management software, you can prepare all sorts of exercises in a couple of clicks<\/strong>. It allows you to preview your network, define the exercise properties, generate traffic, add events, add track objects and add theoretical content. From basic to very specific exercises, our software intends to meet your pedagogical needs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Virtual Train: 2D, 3D or VR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

Not only can cabin procedures and failures be simulated, but also procedures and failures involving the whole train<\/strong>. To allow the trainee to operate parts of the train not present in the cabin, a virtual train (Fault Finding Station) can be provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to a 2D or 3D touchscreen<\/strong>, the trainee is able to navigate through compartments and outside the cab <\/strong>and apply recovery procedures or solve rolling stock related problems. The Fault Finding Station is thus a cost-effective solution<\/strong> to train drivers to operate on the whole train as they would need to in real situations.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>
\n

The Virtual Train is also useful\u00a0within the world of\u00a0Virtual Reality,\u00a0<\/strong>where\u00a0learners can walk or teleport into any of the location of the train or around the train in a\u00a0complete virtual model of the rolling stock<\/strong>.That way, troubleshooting procedures are carried out with a series of\u00a0accurate gestures<\/strong>\u00a0with an immersive VR headset and two main controllers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Motion System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Transurb, we have the skills and experience to equip our simulators with all sorts of dynamic platforms<\/strong>. We have collaborated with various subcontractors specialising in motion technologies to integrate their system into our solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also have the unique expertise<\/strong> of building our own dynamic platforms from hardware to software. This useful knowledge makes us specialists to renovate or fix<\/strong> your current motion system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 3 to 6 DOF<\/strong>, we provide any motion system to meet your needs. In order to best address your requirements and constraints of cost and space, we can assist you in choosing the most appropriate system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
