The issues of the training

The tractors is the main work vehicle of farmers for many years. Among the tractors on the road, some of them do not respect the recent safety standard, like the absence of cabin, which represent a danger. In France, there are about 30 people killed this year in an accident involving a tractor and most of them are tractors driver dead crushed by their own vehicle. For this reason, it is important to adopt the good behavior on the road in order to be safe.

So, with VR your employees confront road-risk related to a bad behavior and about an equipment not suitable in a virtual environment. Statistics in real-time are available to identify mistake in order to solve it, ensure the change and work in better conditions.
