Mixed Reality Simulator for Real World Medical & Tactical Training

Train with real hands, real equipment inside fully immersive virtual environments – on any aircraft, in any theatre, anywhere.

BlueRoom is a deployable mixed-reality simulator that allows teams to train with real hands, real equipment, manikins and role players inside immersive virtual aircraft, vehicle, field, maritime and clinical environments.

Designed for defence, aeromedical, EMS and emergency-response teams, BlueRoom supports hands-on medical and tactical training without requiring constant access to scarce aircraft, vehicles, operational sites or high-risk locations.

What is Mixed Reality Medical Simulation?

Trainees wear an MR headset and work with real equipment, manikins, role players and physical props while the surrounding aircraft, roadside, field hospital or battlefield is rendered virtually in 360°.

Key Differentiators of Mixed Reality Medical Training

True Mixed Reality (MR) provides an entire new dimension of training which traditional Virtual Reality (VR) or Augmented Reality (AR) cannot.

Use your own hands

Trainees see their own hands and their team.

Use real medical equipment

They use their actual medical tools and weapons, monitors, airway kits, IV pumps, stretchers, radios, training weapons and more.

Have complete control

Instructors change the scenario in real time using Mission Control, adjusting patient condition, lighting, weather, location, threat and more.

Mixed Reality vs Virtual Reality – Why It Matters

Virtual Reality has been valuable for procedural walk-throughs and classroom-style decision-making. But for complex aeromedical, tactical, and pre-hospital work, the limitations are clear: learners use digital hands, interact with virtual objects, and the transfer of muscle memory to real equipment can be challenging.

Mixed Reality Simulation

Keeps real, physical interaction at the centre of training.
Preserves fine motor skills such as IV cannulation, airway management, chest tubes, and surgical procedures.
Enables full-team coordination with radios, monitors, restraints, weapons and stretchers exactly as used in the field.
Delivers realistic audio, vibration and visual cues to match operational environments.

Reconfigurable, Interoperable and Interchangeable

BlueRoom’s Mixed Reality Simulator is a platform that supports multiple modules and mission profiles rather than a single static scenario.

Aeromedical

Train in any aircraft, fixed or rotary, land or maritime vehicle/vessel.

Tactical Combat Casualty Care

Train in a wide range of combat, law enforcement and other care under fire environments.

Field care

Immerse yourself in a wide range of civilian and military field environments designed for humanitarian settings, paramedics, prolonged field care, doctors, nurses and hospitals

Custom MR Solutions

BlueRoom can extend the simulator with bespoke MR environments such as cath labs, intensive care units, confined spaces or industrial sites using the same platform, hardware and Mission Control tools.

Key Capabilities of the BlueRoom Mixed Reality Simulator

The simulator uses a configurable chroma-key enclosure and floor and can be installed in classrooms, hangars, training centres or inside a 20-foot air-conditioned container for mobile deployments and exercises.

Who Uses the BlueRoom Mixed Reality Simulator?

BlueRoom systems are used by:

Air forces and defence health services

Mixed reality deployments across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and North America, delivered directly and through regional partners.

Operational Benefits of Mixed Reality Simulation

Organisations invest in the BlueRoom Mixed Reality Simulator to solve very specific operational problems:

Limited access to aircraft and high-value assets. The simulator allows the trainee to rehearse full missions without burning flight hours or tying up platforms.
Risk reduction: Rehearse complex interventions and high-risk scenarios before crews step onto the aircraft, into the theatre or into disaster zones.
Cost efficiency: Run high-fidelity training at a fraction of live exercise cost, with minimal logistics.
Consistency & repeatability: Standardise scenarios, run them repeatedly and adjust difficulty over time.
Scalability: Train individuals, crews or multi-agency teams using the same Mixed Reality simulator.

Global Mixed Reality Simulator, Local Support

BlueRoom designs, manufactures and supports the Mixed Reality Simulator from its headquarters in Melbourne, Australia, collaborating with frontline clinicians and operators to evolve new modules and mission profiles.

Through a network of partners, BlueRoom systems are available in:

Australia & New Zealand
Europe (including Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, Austria, Switzerland)
Middle East & Africa (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Türkiye, Israel, Kenya, Tanzania)
Asia (Japan, Singapore)
North America (United States and Canada, via specialist defence and government partners)

Mixed Reality Simulator – Frequently Asked Questions

A standard installation uses a configurable chroma-key enclosure and floor, plus the MR headsets, tracking, computing and Mission Control workstation. The exact number and layout of walls depends on the selected configuration and training footprint.
