虚拟现实（VR）的研究已经取得了迅速的进展，该技术已经在许多领域成为一种有价值的培训工具。虽然应急响应领域的研究，特别是消防领域的研究仍在迎头赶上，但VR技术在培训方面的未来潜力是有希望的。本文采用SWOT分析框架，分析了沉浸式虚拟现实技术在消防员培训领域的优势、劣势、机遇和威胁。虽然使用VR进行培训具有成本效益，使用安全，并能够为学员提供各种高保真培训环境，但消防部门应用程序缺乏专业化以及技术接受和限制问题需要解决。从目前的研究来看，有一些有希望的发现可能是直接可转移的，为未来消防员更有效的心理和身体训练创造情感和多感官体验。需要更多的研究来建立从VR到真实的生活场景的技能转移方法，并评估在引人入胜和生理刺激的虚拟环境中频繁训练的潜在风险。
Virtual reality (VR) research has gone through rapid advances and the technology has established itself as a valuable training tool in many domains. While research in the field of emergency response, and more specifically in the field of firefighting, is still catching up, the future potential of VR technology for training is promising. This paper uses the SWOT framework to analyse the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats immersive VR technology faces in the field of firefighter training. While using VR for training is cost-effective, safe to use and provides the ability to prepare trainees with a large variety of high fidelity training environments, the lack in specialization of the applications for the fire-service sector and issues with technology acceptance and limitations need to be addressed. Looking to current research, there are promising findings that might be directly transferable, creating affective, and multi-sensory experiences for more effective mental and physical training of firefighters in the future. More research is needed to establish methods of skills transfer from VR to real life scenarios and to evaluate the potential risk of frequent training in engaging and physiologically stimulating virtual environments.
