EDM launches Virtual Slide Trainer

EDM, a leading global provider of training simulators to the civil aviation and defence sectors, has launched its new Virtual Slide Trainer. The Virtual Slide Trainer provides airline cabin crew with convenient, virtual slide deployment training for safety and emergency procedures (SEPs). Dramatically reducing the significant cost and time associated with physical slide deployment training, the Virtual Slide Trainer’s training scenarios are selected via an easy-to-use Instructor Operator Station (IOS). The Virtual Slide Trainer incorporates high definition projectors to display animated Computer Generated Images (CGI) of various slide deployment scenarios that include full and part inflation of the slide. The Virtual Slide Trainer provides cabin crew with a highly representative training device that seamlessly augments the training provided through the use of simulators equipped with actual training slides.
