OneBonsai

Securitas is an international safety & security firm. Their Belgian department has been a customer and partner for the VR Fire Safety training for over 5 years. OneBonsai developed a Mixed Reality fire extinguisher training for them. Now they use the purely Virtual Reality fire extinguisher training to commercially give training to their customers in Retail, Heavy Industry and Medical world.

They see big value in using virtual reality for fire safety training as it can simulate dangers without actually having to create them in real life. This also makes sure nobody can get hurt. They can now offer training to new customers who do not have the physical space or possibility for a fire truck. The time saving for their customers is large as in a VR fire training people can extinguish 5 fires in 15 minutes.[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfEnr6UmpmI[/embed]

"In the light of an internal innovation accelerator program, Proximus had to explore the opportunities of VR in healthcare, to identify links with the core assets of Proximus like 5G, cloud, etc. After analysis it became clear that VR could be a gamechanger in learning and education and more specifically to train situations that are difficult to simulate. Proximus started a co-creation project with a customer to define a concrete VR learning project. Focus of the VR learning project was to train emergency nurses to follow the right procedures and the right protocols during an emergency outside the hospital. Giving care outside the hospital generates a lot more uncertainty and stress, conditions that are difficult to simulate during training.

When the scope was clear, Proximus was looking for a domain specialist that could translate the project on paper into a real virtual environment. Proximus scanned the market to find the best partner and selected OneBonsai to work further with on the project, because OneBonsai gave the most convincing pitch, showed a lot of experience and was able to offer a lot more then what was asked for.

Since the start of the collaboration, Proximus is very satisfied about the way how OneBonsai captures the customer needs and transforms it into some very concrete and tangible.

The quality of the VR trainings is very professional, build on logic and well thought out decisions."- J. Tisaun Proximus[embed]https://youtu.be/JZDl0QYyOt8[/embed]

"Together with the Royal Military Academy, the Royal Higher Institute for Defense and the Royal Navy, OneBonsai researched the use of Virtual Reality for training fire responders in the Navy. This intensive co-creation resulted in an application that could be tested and used in training military personnel. The resulting feedback was incorporated and helped verify that VR would be a viable training tool for military purposes.

The cooperation with OneBonsai was smooth, with regular feedback loops. Through an agile approach, OneBonsai was able to deliver an effective result within the allocated budget and time. We look forward to potential future collaborations!"- Colonel Haelterman[embed]https://youtu.be/J132MLC9xIA[/embed]
