Axa XL leverages virtual reality for training
Axa XL Risk Consulting has launched Axa Immersive Solutions, a training solution leveraging virtual reality and digital twin technologies.
The company said it would give Axa XL’s risk consultants access to a 3D model of a standard factory to provide engaging and sophisticated training for risk managers, facilities/plant managers and site operators, through the use of VR experiences.
It said a model of a client’s site could be developed to provide more realistic training and better address their specific risk prevention needs.
Jonathan Salter, global head of Axa XL Risk Consulting, said: “Our clients are increasingly using digital twin capabilities to model their production sites, processes and supply chains to drive productivity and improve safety.
“With Axa Immersive Solutions, we are leveraging the same technology to create risk and insurance services that have the potential to be far more efficient than traditional solutions, especially when combined with the expertise of our experienced risk consultants.”
Dan Bendavid, global innovation lead at Axa XL, said: “The development of VR-enabled training solutions for our risk consultants and clients is just one exciting area of innovation that demonstrates our ability to provide disruptive yet simple solutions to complex problems, all while speaking the same language as our most future-focused customers.”
Axa Immersive Solutions has been developed in collaboration with Axa Digital Commercial Platform and incubated within Axa Next, an Axa Group innovation unit.
