Fredericksburg, VA: April 1, 2024, Harkcon Global Academy LLC, a leader in human performance and training solutions, is excited to announce a strategic partnership with Rezzil, the world’s leading VR & 3D spatial technology company. This collaboration aims to transform maritime training by leveraging advanced virtual reality (VR) and 3D spatial technology, providing unparalleled flexibility and efficiency for licensed mariners.
Revolutionizing Maritime Training
Integrating Rezzil’s cutting-edge VR and 3D spatial technology with Harkcon Global Academy’s expertise in human performance will offer maritime professionals a state-of-the-art training experience. Unlike traditional simulation training, VR training provides immersive, interactive environments that closely replicate real-world scenarios. This allows mariners to practice and hone their skills in a safe and controlled setting, reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing overall competency.
Training Anytime, Anywhere
One of the standout benefits of VR training is its accessibility. Mariners can train from anywhere in the world, at any time, with reduced reliance on physical simulators or specific training facilities. This flexibility ensures that mariners can maintain and improve their skills continuously, adapting to the ever-changing demands of the maritime industry.
Cost Savings and Efficiency
Virtual reality training offers significant cost savings compared to traditional simulation training. By eliminating the need for expensive physical simulators and dedicated training spaces, companies can reduce overhead costs and invest more in workforce development. Additionally, VR training minimizes travel expenses and downtime, further enhancing operational efficiency.
24/7 Performance Measurement
With VR technology, human performance can be measured continuously. Rezzil’s advanced analytics platform provides real-time data on mariners’ performance, offering insights into their strengths and areas for improvement. This continuous feedback loop enables personalized training programs tailored to individual needs, ensuring optimal skill development and readiness.
Maritime & Extended Reality - Subject Matter Experts Opinions
Harkcon Global Academy President and former U.S. Coast Guard Commander Mark Ruckstuhl says, “Our initial focus has been on building a Bridge Simulation following direct feedback from maritime industry leaders looking for more ways to use immersive technology to help enhance real-time situational awareness and improve training experiences and performance.”
Former U.S. Coast Guard Commander, Founder, and CEO of Harkcon Global Academy, Kevin Harkins Ph.D, adds, “The future of real-time situational awareness in the maritime domain is here.
