Because of the increased need to work remotely, many companies will want to adopt VR technology faster.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Let\u2019s look at five ways VR is being used for remote work training in the coronavirus era.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. VR for Training that Scales<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">VR training is used to educate entire organizations, large or small, and within varying fields and industries, including <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pixovr.com\/vr-training-for-construction\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">construction<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pixovr.com\/vr-training-for-manufacturing\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">manufacturing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pixovr.com\/vr-training-for-energy-and-utilities\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">energy and utilities<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Coordinating training functions and relaying relevant information between multiple employees and employee locations, departments, VR devices, and experience levels has been a challenge for businesses even in the pre-coronavirus era. However, as VR training and other VR applications increase in sophistication, even these hurdles can be surmounted through the use of the right VR content distribution platform.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">With a VR content distribution platform, VR can be managed and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pixovr.com\/how-to-scale-virtual-reality-training-for-enterprise\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">scaled<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> as needed for training and other purposes. With the right tools, training and other content can be implemented and integrated strategically throughout an entire organization, while data tracking and feedback along the way proves its effectiveness in various stages and use cases. All this makes VR Training a potent remote work solution.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">With a comprehensive platform that provides training departments the ability to access, distribute, and manage content, VR training can be implemented on-demand and targeted to specific learning needs, through one universal portal, whether it\u2019s to connect a small team working within the same city but different locations, or thousands of employees working from all over the world.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Avoiding the Costs and Uncertainties of Classroom Training<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">With in-person, instructor-led training, logistics, costs, and time commitments are a factor with each session \u2014 and that\u2019s in \u201cnormal\u201d times. New restrictions on in-person gatherings make this type of training nearly impossible in many circumstances, with no way of knowing how long these restrictions will be needed, (or when they might become necessary again).&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">With VR training, once the platform is established, training can be repeated anywhere, anytime, without many of the costs and limitations associated with classroom training. With a VR content distribution system in place, you only need the trainers and trainees, and can skip substantial expenses like individual travel, lodging, and even spatial considerations.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/educatorsinvr.com\/events\/international-summit\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Educators in VR International Summit<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> was held virtually this year, and is considered the largest immersive virtual event of its kind. As conferences around the world were falling like dominoes with cancellations, such as South by Southwest and the Google and Facebook developers conference, the advantages of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/moorinsights\/2020\/03\/02\/how-vr-and-ar-could-be-a-solution-to-corona-virus-cancellations-for-conferences\/#2c64141030c3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">VR<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> technology quickly became apparent. HTC, creators of the hugely successful <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.vive.com\/us\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Vive<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> and Focus Plus VR headsets among others, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/uploadvr.com\/vive-ecosystem-conference-vr\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">announced<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> their industry conference would be hosted virtually for the first time this year.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Maintaining the Team Dynamic and Communication Patterns&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">As VR involves working within a virtual platform-based, at least conceptually, on real people and real scenarios, the in-person team dynamics and communications patterns are seamlessly maintained.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Employees can train and work together in a safe environment to tackle and familiarize themselves with high-risk real-life situations that would otherwise involve high-costs to employers and unnecessary danger to employees. But the applications for working together in VR go well beyond mere safety training.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">In the time of COVID-19, this kind of virtual collaboration is being used for critical advances in science. For example, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.matryx.ai\/vr-used-to-study-coronavirus-proteins-8d74e5f5092d\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">VR has been used to study coronavirus proteins<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> by an American and Australian scientist, working together across oceans while obviating the obviously challenges and risks of face-to-face interaction. Their collaborative VR analysis of the virus can be seen <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/2A4dAUYOpsI\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">, where they view data in a shared virtual space, just as they would in person, with the added benefit of allowing for 3D modeling of molecular structures not possible in \u201cordinary\u201d reality.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Getting \u201cBehind the Wheel\u201d When Travel is Impossible<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">With VR, ironically enough, customers and employees can actually be more mobile than ever, regardless of travel restrictions and mandated quarantines that become increasingly strict in order to deal with the threat of coronavirus. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><b>In VR, \u201cmatter\u201d doesn\u2019t matter.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Now, team members can be brought together into one virtual space from any location. Individuals can still get the \u201cbehind the wheel\u201d experience of instructor-led training, in person \u2014 just virtually. With VR headsets and hands-on controls, employees can continue to learn and practice tactile work that involves more effort than sitting in front of a computer.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pixovr.com\/fully-immersive-vr-training\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">This study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> showed the physical benefits of virtual reality training for employees, compared to traditional video training. With VR, team members share the same virtual space, creating more connectedness than with video alone, even if they were all sitting together in the same office or training location. Also, with an immersive 3D environment, team members can more freely choose their preferred perspective as they actively learn.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">This application of VR is being considered for businesses that previously required a person to be on-site. For example, the housing industry is increasingly using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.barrons.com\/articles\/virtual-realitys-role-in-global-real-estate-market-expands-due-to-coronavirus-01584975500\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">VR for property tours<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">, making transactions simpler even when buyers and sellers are separated by distance or possible health concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. VR Meets the Needs of Varying Learning Styles<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Many previous remote work and training options made it difficult for organizations to cater to individual learning needs, whether simply preferred or required for the use case. For training in particular, many courses offered only video, PowerPoint-based, or audio training, while others struggled to find a workable, blended learning combination of the three.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">However, with virtual reality training, realistic controls used in a 3D virtual world allow for immersive training, catering more dynamically to various <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/pixovr.com\/how-virtual-reality-suits-different-learning-styles\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">learning styles<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">, similar to the sensory experiences provided in person.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">By providing elements of visual, auditory, reading\/writing, and kinesthetic learning, VR allows for a qualitatively better learning experience, regardless of an individual\u2019s preferred style. VR allows all users to interact on multiple levels in a shared virtual space.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New Remote Opportunities<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Threats like the coronavirus pandemic will and have created unexpected and difficult disruptions for business \u2014 that\u2019s become painfully clear in recent weeks, as the human and economic toll of COVID-19 is increasingly felt on every continent except Antarctica. Undoubtedly, the way the world itself works and learns will change forever in response to this unprecedented global health crisis. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">But in the long-run, how we choose to respond to adversity on multiple levels is the story of humanity\u2019s evolution itself. While disruption has costs, often the lessons learned are invaluable. Often, disruptions lead to intense periods of introspection, the emergence of new perspectives, and adaptation in how things are done. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">This time will lead to accelerated change for many businesses \u2014 whether they were ready or not.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Exploring the emerging remote work tools that technology provides, including VR, has allowed many businesses to effectively continue their important work despite the profound disruption of this \u201cnew normal\u201d. <br><br><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"cta-block\">\n\t<div class=\"cta-block-row\">\n\t\t<div class=\"lc\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lc-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lc-logo\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pixovr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/PIXO-Logo-e1657561079641.png\" alt=\"PIXO VR logo\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lc-headline\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2>PIXO Has Improved VR Management to One Easy Step<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lc-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\tAs VR training becomes more prevalent in enterprise, one of the leading issues users have identified is how complicated managing the training seems.
