Customised sea simulations

Virtual reality training for all maritime environments

Train your teams to succeed in every kind of open water operation. Metaverse VR’s hyper-realistic marine simulations recreate busy shipping lanes, accurate coastlines, contested waters, and sub-surface missions.

Trusted by the world’s most highly-performing teams

Immersive virtual reality maritime simulations

Using real-world hydrographic, spatial, and environmental data Metaverse VR replicate real marine environments. Whatever you need in your training simulation can be created, from accurate locations all over the world, to imagined locations with the specific complexity and realism.

Give your team the experience they need manoeuvring in narrow shipping channels, crossing archipelagos, installing offshore oil riggs, or defending deep-water combat zones. Our environments are built to reflect their accurate size, layout, and navigational demands.

Prepare for the unexpected

Exceptional training for elite seafaring teams

Using our technology, instructors can create virtual reality environments precisely according to the training needs of the individual, team, or organisation. Manipulate weather conditions, including wind speed, wind direction, icy temperature simulation, dangerous storms, and low- visibility fog. Dictate the sea conditions from glassy, still surfaces to extreme, dangerous waves.

Beyond the challenges in nature, instructors can test trainees with vessel failures such as blackouts, communications shutdowns, or system faults.

The authenticity of virtual reality maritime training environments is designed to transform how crews prepare to make critical decisions under pressure before they ever face the real thing.

Take the helm with confidence

Learn to operate any marine vessel in VR

Trainees will learn every aspect of their role, virtually. Whatever the vessel- from naval ships and submersibles, to ferries and cargo boats- the Metaverse VR experts create high-fidelity virtual replicas. Your team will learn every detail of bridge layouts, control systems, instrumentation, and ship handling behaviours.

As well as recreating the appearance and function of the vessels, our developers also recreate the “feel” of the vessel. The weight, propulsion, and sea state interactions are all included in our virtual training modules.

Support your trainees to become expert, highly- performing individuals with hyper- realistic virtual training marine experiences.

Faster skill acquisition. Deeper knowledge retention.

Virtual reality multi-agency maritime training

Virtual reality marine training allows different teams to collaborate, liaise, and progress.

Bridge crews, engineering teams, navigators, and command officers train together in real time. Regardless of location, trainees can access the same synchronised simulation. Instructors can communicate levels of performance and standard good practice to every trainee consistently.

Virtual reality training is powerful tool for coordination and contingency planning, especially for multi-agency maritime exercises where coast guard, navy, port authorities, and emergency responders must act as one.

Data-informed virtual reality maritime training

Every Metaverse VR training module generates useful, valuable data in real time.

These insights empower instructors to target errors, give better feedback, and support trainees to learn effectively. Instructors have tools to accurately measure reaction times, assess communication, and replay trainee manoeuvres. Integrated analytics and full scenario playback means every action, decision, and deviation can be assessed.

Rigorous, data- rich, training programs result in higher professional standards and safer real-world outcomes.

Rehearse for the unpredictable

Making the sea safe with virtual reality training

There is no environment as unpredictable or as unforgiving as open water.

Training effectively and safely in maritime environments is incredibly difficult. New or inexperienced teams in variable natural conditions with powerful, complex equipment is rife with challenge. The solution is virtual reality training.

Risk-free, comprehensive, and replicable, virtual reality is an essential training tool, unparalleled for preparing trainee sailors.

Uncompromising results in uncompromising environments

Test your teams and push them to succeed with fully bespoke, industry- leading, virtual reality marine training.
