The IM360 features the flexibility to provide simulation based training for machines from Immersive Technologies’ large range of mining equipment simulator modules including surface, underground hard rock and underground coal equipment.

It has the patented RealMove technology, which allows trainees to freely walk around their minesite and practice responding to emergency evacuations and identify risks in a 360-degree realistic environment.

The company claims the new technologies allow personnel to be prepared and assessed to a standard far beyond traditional methods.

The IM360 is available in classroom and transportable configurations.

The classroom model has been designed to be installed in existing buildings or training rooms and allows for multiple simulators to be located close together.

The self-contained transportable model can be used inside or outside and can be moved easily between sites.
