The mixed reality enabler: physiological and psychological training across land, sea and space

09 Apr 2024
DisTec Theatre
OECD forecasts the global underwater sector could reach $140bn by 2035.  Rapid growth, need to reduce time to market, risk and improve quality and functionality of new subsea technologies, especially in the TRL 4 – 6 area, is paramount to success.  Coupled with the need to train more operators and technicians in autonomous underwater vehicles to meet demand, particularly around FLOW and its resilience and security.  With the increased commercialization and development of space we can learn from each other, benefitting the underwater defense sector as well as the wider marine ecosystem. There is a real nexus between the two environments.
