Immersive Technologies puts simulator training into the palm of your hand with the launch of the TabliT™ Trainer Console, a portable, hand-held computer interface for the Advanced Equipment (AE) Simulator.

The TabliT™ Trainer Console increases training flexibility by allowing trainers to remotely launch operator events and emergency situations with wireless technology and receive real-time feedback whilst the trainee operates the Advanced Equipment Simulator.

This "roaming" aspect of the console provides the trainer with increased freedom and faster access to numerous training scenarios, whilst maintaining complete supervision of the training session.

Oye Obe , Executive Vice President Business Development at Immersive Technologies says: "The portability of the TabliT™ Trainer Console increases trainer freedom, whilst the touch screen feature allows trainers to focus on the trainee rather than being concerned with the technology. Overall, this improves both the efficiency and effectiveness of the training session."
