When it comes to saving lives in high-risk environments, knowledge and preparation are crucial. Combat casualty care education equips individuals with the skills and confidence to provide immediate medical assistance in tactical situations. This training is designed to address the unique challenges faced on the battlefield or in any hostile environment where conventional medical support may not be immediately available. Understanding the principles behind this education can m

Medical simulations have transformed the way healthcare professionals learn and refine their skills. With the integration of advanced simulation tools in medicine, training has become more immersive, precise, and effective. These tools allow practitioners to practice complex procedures in a safe environment, reducing risks to patients and improving outcomes. This article explores the latest innovations in medical simulation technology, their applications, and how they are sha

The Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT) has taken a significant step in reshaping paramedic education in the UAE. Two additional BlueRoom Mixed Reality Simulators are now installed and operational at its Sharjah and Bani Yas campuses. This expansion builds on the first BlueRoom system at HCT’s Al Ain Zakhir campus. Now, three HCT sites have direct access to Mixed Reality (MR) training. This makes HCT one of the most advanced paramedic education providers in the region and the

Justin Wright (Hui Huliau), Louis An (BlueRoom), Robert McKeen (Hui Huliau), Stephen Bozovich (Hui Huliau), Heath Stacy (Hui Huliau), Jason Hadley (Hui Huliau) If there’s a single place on earth where simulation drives how militaries actually fight, it’s Orlando in early December. I/ITSEC 2025 once again turned the Orange County Convention Centre into the epicentre of the global modelling and simulation community, where thousands of uniformed users, engineers, acquisition t

Discussion around how BlueRoom is leading the world in mixed reality and virtual reality medical simulation training.

Introduction Training in high-risk environments, such as combat, aeromedical evacuation, emergency medicine, special operations, and frontline EMS, demands realistic, hands-on practice. This training requires real equipment, decision-making under pressure, and true-to-life environments. Many organisations have turned to Virtual Reality (VR) simulation as a cost-effective alternative to expensive live exercises. While VR has its advantages, its limitations for medical training

Chief of AirForce with BlueRoom and Leader Healthcare at Dubai Airshow A milestone moment for Australian-made Mixed Reality technology on the world stage. The BlueRoom team was honoured to welcome Chief of Air Force, Air Marshal Stephen Chappell DSC CSC OAM, to the BlueRoom Mixed Reality Simulator during the 2025 Dubai Airshow. Air Marshal Chappell was joined by BlueRoom CTO Dale Linegar and Sukhdeep Sachdev, CEO of our UAE partner Leader Healthcare, during a live demonstrati

In today’s fast-evolving world, traditional learning methods often fall short when it comes to preparing individuals for real-life challenges. Immersive training technology is transforming education and professional development by creating realistic learning scenarios that engage learners deeply. This approach leverages virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) to simulate environments where learners can practice skills safely and effectively. The P
