BlueRoom was developed to help crews train in realistic, high-pressure environments without needing to rely on live aircraft for every scenario. Working with Airbus Australia Pacific and Airbus Helicopters gives us the opportunity to explore how this capability could support future HEMS programs in Australia and markets globally,&#8221; CEO and Co-Founder of BlueRoom Simulations, Ben Krynski, said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-i8gm6458\" class=\"dUraF _0Jf6a Nv1gb YXSPe\" dir=\"auto\">Under the MoU, Airbus Australia Pacific, Airbus Helicopters and BlueRoom Simulations intend to jointly investigate cooperation opportunities relating to future HEMS programs, including the potential inclusion of BlueRoom\u2019s high-fidelity MR training capability as part of broader aircraft training, support and sustainment solutions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dUraF _0Jf6a Nv1gb YXSPe\" dir=\"auto\">&#8220;We are pleased to explore innovative Australian training capabilities that may support future helicopter emergency medical services programs and enhance operational readiness for customers,&#8221; Airbus Helicopters in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific, Managing Director, Christian Venzal, stated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dUraF _0Jf6a Nv1gb YXSPe\" dir=\"auto\">&#8220;HEMS crews operate in some of the most demanding conditions imaginable, and the way we prepare them needs to keep pace. Mixed reality training has real potential to put crews into high-pressure scenarios in a safe and controlled manner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-k9mz6460\" class=\"dUraF _0Jf6a Nv1gb YXSPe\" dir=\"auto\">BlueRoom\u2019s MR training system enables aeromedical, emergency medical and defence teams to train inside realistic operational environments while using real equipment, clinical workflows and mission-specific scenarios. <\/p>\n<p class=\"dUraF _0Jf6a Nv1gb YXSPe\" dir=\"auto\">The collaboration will explore how this capability may support complex aeromedical operations, including crew resource management, hoisting, search and rescue, law enforcement and other specialist mission profiles.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-hsfu4474\" class=\"dUraF _0Jf6a Nv1gb YXSPe\" dir=\"auto\">The MoU also contemplates longer-term opportunities, including the potential promotion of BlueRoom\u2019s capabilities within Airbus\u2019 global supply chain and for other international tender opportunities where appropriate.<\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-cz2tt476\" class=\"dUraF _0Jf6a Nv1gb YXSPe\" dir=\"auto\">RotorTech 2026 is taking place from 6\u20138 May 2026 at RACV Royal Pines Resort on the Gold Coast, bringing together the vertical flight community across helicopter, uncrewed flight and Advanced Air Mobility sectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BlueRoom Simulations has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Airbus Australia Pacific and Airbus Helicopters at RotorTech&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":656910,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[64,63,44],"class_list":["post-656909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-australia","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/656909","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=656909"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/656909\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/656910"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=656909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=656909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=656909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
