The Bundesamt für Personalmanagement der Bundeswehr impressed at the IdeenExpo 2024 in Hanover. In line with this year’s expo motto, “Just Do It!”, VISCON created special interactive content for the Bundeswehr job simulator, offering an immersive experience of a Bundeswehr career field.
Using a VR headset, the Meta Quest 3, visitors to the expo could step into the role of a soldier through the content named “Light Reconnaissance Patrol.” Whether sneaking through the forest or swimming across a riverbed, the virtual and audiovisual experience was truly a highlight!
“The immersion and involvement of the viewers were of utmost importance,” said Christoph Emschermann, Senior Inspector for Innovation Management at the Bundesamt für Personalmanagement der Bundeswehr. The feedback was overwhelming! The graphical representation and level of detail captivated visitors so much that they sometimes forgot the instructions delivered through the VR headset.
This special content will now be used in advisory sessions to convey the soldier`s profession to potential applicants via gaming laptops.
We are very proud of this project with the Bundeswehr and look forward to many more exciting projects like this!
