Network Rail

Project Case Study

Network Rail, partnered with Spark Lab to develop an advanced Virtual Reality (VR) training solution for untethered headsets. This innovative VR platform was designed to immerse staff in a realistic railway environment, providing comprehensive training on safe working practices on and around tracks without exposing them to real-world dangers.

Leveraging cutting-edge VR technology, Spark Lab created highly detailed simulations that replicated various scenarios staff might encounter while working on or crossing tracks. This immersive training solution ensured that employees could practice and understand safety protocols in a controlled, risk-free setting.

The VR training program not only enhanced learning outcomes but also significantly improved safety awareness among Network Rail staff. This project underscored Network Rail's commitment to leveraging VR technology to promote safety and efficiency in railway operations, providing an engaging and effective training tool for their workforce.
