The presentation will cover the development of a virtual environment for training Aena staff (firefighters, maintenance and signalers) using 3D simulations with VR headsets and haptic gloves. This innovative solution enables practical exercises in a realistic setting, increasing both the quality of training and the variety of available scenarios. The goal is to expand the reach of current training programs, especially regarding the diversity of aircraft models and the availability of equipment for hands-on practice.
