Virtual reality is enhancing driver training in different schools. Any student sitting in a classroom can simply strap on a virtual reality headset, complete with headphones and visual field and enjoy quality immersion training education. According to the modern set up, the headset comes with a realistic quality steering wheel that vibrates based on what is taking place in the virtual reality simulator.
Today, Clatskanie’s parents who love to take their teens to driving school can make the most of the latest virtual reality option. At the St. Helen’s Company, Columbia River Education, there are two fully equipped virtual reality simulators that help to enhance the quality of training. At the institution, learning is more exciting and rewarding.
The Columbia River Driver Education, the company also received quality authorization from the ODOT, Oregon Department of Transportation to use VR, training in Driver’s Education. According to Greene, the driver education provider in the state is also equally authorized to provide the best virtual training.
According to Rich Greene, the company owner, virtual reality driver training education also allows students to sit in a chair and enjoy clear, quality and efficient training. With such a setup, there comes a very realistic steering and training wheel that vibrates as it offers a more realistic experience.
The entire virtual set up reality driver training school connects the teacher’s computer who is in charge of controlling the simulation experience. After the setup, the student will further be subjected to an array of scenarios they would face in real life. Greene further said more benefits will come from the system besides the ability to drive a real car in a simulative or immersive environment.
“We realized that it’s difficult for us to put the students we have out here in Columbia County on every road configuration that they may experience as they’re driving,’’ Greene said. “And so this allows us to expose them to those kinds of situations.”
