Improving Confidence to Act via an Interactive Training Solution
Can you save a life in 4 minutes? In the case of a sudden cardiac arrest, you have less than 4 minutes to react before brain damage is likely. CPR training company Four Minutes Limited found that although people were undergoing training for CPR, in real situations they didn’t feel confident to act.
To solve this problem, they teamed up with CEMET to help create a more interactive training solution that would recreate a real-life scenario with the aim of giving people that confidence to act quickly in an emergency situation. Four Minutes Limited turned to mixed reality to provide a sensory, immersive experience where the participant witnesses a real emergency situation and can take the necessary steps to save a life.
