Project Summary/Abstract Instructors must deliver engaging, realistic, and immersive tabletop simulations at the conclusion of Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) recertification to support Hazardous Material (HAZMAT) worker and first responder safety and adherence to protocol in the field. This exercise often burdens instructors to deliver a paper or PowerPoint simulation that, although based on real events, fails to meaningfully engage or immerse trainees. When trainees fail to engage, they are putting themselves and others at risk by decreasing their ability to adhere to protocol when responding to HAZMAT incidents in the field. Therefore, emergency response training organizations require a cost-effective training solution that increases the realism and authenticity of tabletop simulations to better equip trainees to execute HAZWOPER safely and effectively when they are in the field. Charles River Analytics, in partnership with The New England Consortium and Lt. Michael Kates of the Boston Fire Department, proposes to develop and evaluate an Immersive Modular Preparedness Intelligent Tutor (IMPRINT). IMPRINT aims to provide a robust, commercial, portable adaptive virtual reality (VR) solution that will be complemented by an intelligent virtual training system and development framework that actively improves trainees' ability to perform HAZWOPER procedures within a range of realistic field scenarios. IMPRINT will be an untethered intelligent tutoring system (ITS) using the Oculus Quest VR headset to provide an immersive, virtual training experience. With IMPRINT, trainees can apply complex, dangerous procedures in a safe, controlled environment through guided and immersive procedure rehearsal. In Phase II, we will produce a system that complements existing training with a production ready VR case study development suite and a library of VR case studies that replace standard paper and PowerPoint scenario-based activities used to prepare trainees for hands-on assessments and their final HAZWOPER qualification test.

项目总结/摘要 教师必须在结束时提供引人入胜，逼真和身临其境的桌面模拟， 危险废物操作和应急响应（HAZWOPER）重新认证，以支持危险废物管理 材料（危险品）工人和第一响应者的安全和遵守协议的领域。这种练习往往 教师的负担，提供一个文件或PowerPoint模拟，虽然基于真实的事件，未能 有意义地参与或沉浸学员。当受训者无法参与时，他们将自己和他人 在现场应对危险品事故时，降低了他们遵守协议的能力。 因此，应急响应培训组织需要一种具有成本效益的培训解决方案， 桌面模拟的真实性和真实性，以更好地装备学员安全地执行HAZWOPER， 当他们在现场的时候。 查尔斯河分析公司与新英格兰财团和 波士顿消防局，建议开发和评估沉浸式模块化智能准备 导师（IMPRINT）。IMPRINT旨在提供一个强大的，商业化的，便携式的自适应虚拟现实（VR）解决方案 这将得到智能虚拟培训系统和开发框架的补充， 提高学员在一系列实际现场场景中执行HAZWOPER程序的能力。印记 将是一个不受限制的智能辅导系统（ITS），使用Oculus Quest VR头显提供一个 身临其境的虚拟培训体验。有了IMPRINT，学员可以在一个复杂的，危险的程序， 安全、可控的环境，通过引导和沉浸式程序排练。在第二阶段，我们将制作一个 该系统通过生产就绪的VR案例研究开发套件和库来补充现有培训 虚拟现实案例研究，取代用于准备的标准纸张和基于PowerPoint的活动 培训学员进行实践评估和HAZWOPER最终资格考试。
