About LabTrainingVR: Personal Protective Equipment Edition
This basic-level course is designed to enhance laboratory scientists' ability to identify how personal protective equipment (PPE) can help reduce the risk of exposure to hazardous materials, prevent transmission of infectious agents, and demonstrate how to don and doff PPE in the correct order to minimize contamination and potential exposures. This course empowers learners to apply knowledge and practice selecting the appropriate PPE and properly donning and doffing it in a virtual museum. It concludes with a final exam in a virtual laboratory. OBJECTIVES:
After completing this course, learners will be able to:
• Identify the routes of transmission of infectious agents.
• Demonstrate how to don and doff the appropriate PPE for daily use at the bench
• Demonstrate how to don and doff PPE during an emergency.
AUDIENCE:
This course is designed for clinical and public health laboratory professionals, including safety professionals and persons who work with potentially infectious agents in a laboratory.
VR NOTE:
This course is designed to work ONLY on the HTC Vive VR platform. A play area of at least 3 ft. x 3 ft. is recommended, but a larger 20 ft. x 20 ft. space would be ideal, to make the learning experience in this VR courses feel more authentic and real. This VR course also requires a play area with 360° tracking. In addition, a learner’s computer must meet the following specifications:

Just writing a review to say that this app works perfectly fine on the Oculus Quest 2 with link cable. Not sure why it's not listed as being officially supported. Also, works perfectly fine with standing room. Not sure why it says 20 ft x 20 ft is recommended, especially when only the USA uses Imperial instead of the universal metric system.5 found this helpful

Using VR as a training tool makes a lot of sense. Problem: it's a rather niche market, and not everyone is going to want to pay thousands of dollars to buy video game equipment as a training tool, even cheaper options like the Facebook trash most(?) people have. Problem: Putting on protective equipment is not click and drag. There are actual procedures on how to put on or remove (don or doff) gloves, coats, masks, glasses... this is not something you can do by clicking a trigger and pulling a solid object into a general area on your body. Wasting some disposable gloes learning how to use them for real is cheaper than VR equipment, even if you can reuse the headsets for dozens of people. This software failed to ask the question: "Who is this for?". How many eight year old lab techs need to learn how to use safety equipment in an actual lab where they're meant to operate centrifuges and handle infectious materials? And if it's meant for adults, why are there ball gowns and viking helmets and toy dinosaurs? I applaud using VR for training purposes, but this specific kind of training cannot be done in VR. This is a legitimately weird decision for a project that didn't have any sani…1 found this helpful
[h1]Before I played LabTrainingVR: Personal Protective Equipment Edition, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]1 found this helpful
Think you can play multiplayer for some reason. 10/10 Better than Horizon Worlds.
