DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The Specific Aim of the research project is to design and develop an interactive virtual experience that will reduce the risk faced by first responders when dealing with incidents involving hazardous materials. If first responders, particularly fire fighters, follow a systematic approach to handling emergency incidents, their safety and health will be better protected. The title of the proposed training tool is 'Responding to HazMat Incidents-Interactive Case Studies.' It will be targeted toward first responder organizations, such as the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF), to be used in their regularly scheduled instructor-led training programs. The training tool will be developed for the DVD format. DVD will enable MetaMedia to incorporate compelling and realistic interactive video simulations of hazardous materials incidents, instructive computer animations, and engaging team exercises to produce an effective training tool that successfully transfers knowledge. The aim of the HazMat Incidents DVD is to create a training program that can be easily incorporated into existing training curricula to improve the readiness of first responder organizations to safely handle emergency incidents. The DVD will represent a technology innovation in instructor-led training. It will take advantage of the unique features of DVD, such as high-quality motion video, interactive branching, multiple audio channels, and low-cost delivery systems to bring real-world simulations into the classroom. During Phase I of the project, MetaMedia and the IAFF will determine the training needs of the target audience, design a training program to meet those needs, and produce a working prototype of the product that will be evaluated in an actual training session. Deliverables for Phase I will be a design document providing a blueprint for building the training program, a working prototype providing up to 30 minutes of interactive video, and an evaluation report describing the effectiveness of the HazMat Incidents DVD prototype.

描述（由申请人提供） 该研究项目的具体目标是设计和开发一种交互式虚拟体验，以减少第一响应者在处理涉及危险材料的事件时所面临的风险。 如果第一反应者，特别是消防员，遵循系统的方法来处理紧急事件，他们的安全和健康将得到更好的保护。 拟议培训工具的标题是“应对危险物质事件-互动案例研究”。它将针对第一反应组织，如国际消防员协会（IAFF），用于他们定期安排的消防员领导的培训计划。 将为DVD格式开发培训工具。 DVD将使MetaMedia能够将危险材料事故的引人注目的和现实的交互式视频模拟、指导性的计算机动画和参与性的团队练习结合起来，以产生一种有效的培训工具，成功地传递知识。 HazMat Incidents DVD的目的是创建一个培训计划，可以很容易地纳入现有的培训课程，以提高第一响应组织的准备，以安全地处理紧急事件。 该DVD将代表一种技术创新，以培训师为主导的培训。 它将利用DVD的独特功能，如高质量的动态视频，交互式分支，多音频通道和低成本的传输系统，将真实世界的模拟带入课堂。 在项目的第一阶段，MetaMedia和IAFF将确定目标受众的培训需求，设计一个满足这些需求的培训计划，并制作一个产品的工作原型，在实际的培训课程中进行评估。 第一阶段的评估材料将是一份设计文件，提供建立培训计划的蓝图，一个工作原型，提供长达30分钟的互动视频，以及一份评估报告，描述危险物质事件DVD原型的有效性。
