Research summary
Project overview
This project asks how immersive training environments can strengthen safety preparedness before students enter a physical laboratory. The emphasis is on repeated practice without exposing learners to real chemical risk.
Approach
The prototype recreates hazardous scenarios inside a guided VR flow, allowing users to navigate procedures, identify hazards, and practice correct responses within a controlled environment.
Impact
The outcome suggests a strong role for immersive teaching tools in environments where mistakes are expensive, dangerous, or difficult to rehearse safely in the real world.
