Remote Training

Many training programmes are deeply tied to a specific environment — a factory floor, a warehouse, a hazardous worksite, a specialist facility. Avatour captures that environment in 360°, giving trainees an immersive view of the actual location rather than a classroom simulation. Live sessions let trainees observe real processes and ask questions in real time; recorded sessions let them revisit the environment as many times as needed. The location becomes part of the training in a way that slides and videos simply can't replicate.

Trainees have their own independent 360° viewpoint — they can look wherever they need to, at their own pace, without being directed by the trainer. This is fundamentally different from a guided video or screen share. In a live session, the trainer can also lock everyone's view to a specific point of interest when needed — useful for highlighting a hazard, demonstrating a procedure, or drawing attention to a specific piece of equipment.

Yes — and this is one of the most valuable aspects of Avatour for training teams. Recordings are stored in Workspaces and can be shared with new trainees on demand, with no need to repeat the live session. Subject matter experts can annotate recordings with notes and comments that guide trainees through specific areas. Access can be granted and revoked per individual, making it straightforward to manage a library of training content that grows over time.

Yes. Walking new employees or contractors through a site virtually before they arrive in person is one of the most practical applications. Trainees can be familiarised with the layout, hazard zones, emergency exits, and safe working procedures in 360° — giving them genuine spatial awareness of the environment before their first day on site. This approach reduces induction time on site and improves safety readiness.

Yes. Avatour is used by organisations including NETEC — the National Emerging Special Pathogens Training and Education Center — to simulate, review, and analyse emergency response scenarios such as spill containment drills. Recording drills in 360° creates a reusable training asset that captures the environment and the procedure together, enabling teams to review exactly what happened and where, and to train others on correct protocols without needing to recreate the drill from scratch.

Avatour's Quick Capture feature lets operators record 360° video of procedures, line changeovers, standard work, and other on-site activities without an internet connection. Those recordings can then be uploaded to a Workspace and shared with teams at other locations — either for independent review or group discussion in a meeting. This makes it practical to document best practices at one site and distribute them across an entire network without requiring travel or a live session.

Yes. Quick Capture records 360° video offline — no internet connection is required at the site during recording. The footage is uploaded to the Avatour platform once connectivity is available. For live training sessions, Avatour's own multi-carrier LTE service provides connectivity in 200+ countries, reducing dependence on local networks at remote or challenging sites.

Avatour offers a short-term pilot programme. The hardware ships pre-configured and is ready to use on arrival. Trainees join live sessions via a standard web browser — no software installation required. Most teams are recording their first training session within days of receiving the kit.
