What is VR safety training?

VR safety training uses immersive virtual reality simulations to teach workers how to handle dangerous workplace scenarios safely. Unlike traditional classroom or video training, VR training allows workers to practice hands-on responses to hazards like fires, forklift operations, lockout/tagout procedures, and confined space entry in a safe-to-fail environment.

Is VR safety training OSHA compliant?

Humulo VR safety training is OSHA-aligned, meaning our simulations are designed to meet OSHA training requirements for specific standards including forklift operations (1910.178), fire safety, lockout/tagout (1910.147), and confined space entry. Our platform includes audit-ready reporting to document training completion and compliance.

How much does VR safety training cost?

Humulo enterprise VR safety training is priced as a turnkey solution starting at $7,500 per deployed unit, which includes VR headset hardware, pre-built training modules, analytics dashboard, and ongoing support. This solution-based pricing eliminates the need to purchase hardware separately and includes everything needed to deploy VR training at your facility.

Does VR safety training work offline?

Yes, Humulo VR safety training works offline. This is critical for manufacturing facilities, remote job sites, and field operations where internet connectivity may be limited or unavailable. Training modules are pre-loaded onto VR headsets, allowing workers to complete training anywhere.

Who uses Humulo VR safety training?

Humulo serves enterprise clients across manufacturing, logistics, utilities, government, and defense. Our clients include the Department of Defense, Kaiser Aluminum, Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages, FedEx, Lafarge, Goodyear, the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, and the University of Wisconsin Madison.

The Problem

Expertise Doesn’t Scale. The Consequences Do.

Your best people can’t be everywhere. Critical 3D knowledge is locked in experts who travel, while the rest of the team waits.

Experts Can’t Be Everywhere

Senior engineers spend more time traveling than teaching. Field techs wait hours for guidance. New hires wait weeks.

$4,000+ per site visit

Video Flattens 3D to 2D

Screen-sharing a CAD model gives viewers compressed, laggy 2D video. All depth, detail, and interactivity is lost.

Like learning surgery from a postcard

VR Excludes Most of the Team

Only people with headsets can join VR sessions. The design team on laptops? The field tech on a phone? Locked out.

Expensive hardware barrier

No Enterprise Integration

VR tools don’t connect to Microsoft Teams, Active Directory, or enterprise licensing. IT pushes back. Adoption stalls.

Shadow IT & compliance risk

Your Remote Assist Platform Is Sunsetting

Microsoft is ending Dynamics 365 Remote Assist and Guides in December 2026. Licenses are already unavailable. Teams using HoloLens for field support need a replacement that doesn’t lock them into discontinued hardware.

Workshop is device-agnostic by design

The Solution

Interactive 3D Collaboration for Every Screen

One platform for training, design reviews, and field support. A VR presenter gets the full immersive experience. Everyone else gets an interactive 3D viewer right in their browser or Teams meeting — no installs, no headset.

Any Device

Desktop, tablet, phone, Teams. Browser-only — zero installs for viewers.

Native Teams

Embeds as a meeting tab with SSO, two-way audio, and share to stage.

Enterprise-Ready

Tenant-scoped models, per-seat licensing, Active Directory integration.

See It in Action

One Model, Every Screen

The same interactive 3D model renders locally on every device. Full fidelity. Full interactivity. At 1/1000th the bandwidth of video streaming.

VR Headset — Full Immersive Experience

Hand tracking, spatial calibration, multi-user avatars, and labeled components in shared 3D space.

Phone & Tablet — Zero Installs

Touch to orbit, pinch to zoom, follow presenter. Same 3D model on iOS and Android browsers.

Self-Service Model Upload Portal

Drag and drop a GLB file, preview it in 3D, validate, and publish to your model library.

Your Model Library

Browse uploaded models, preview in 3D, and initiate a Microsoft Teams session with one click.

How It Works

From Model to Live Session in Seconds

No setup. No installs. No IT tickets.

Select a Model

Open your model library and pick a 3D model. Training owners upload models through the self-service portal.

Share the Room Code

A unique 5-digit code appears. Share it in Teams chat, email, or Slack. Or launch directly from the model library.

Everyone Joins Instantly

Open the Workshop tab in Teams, or visit workshop.humulo.com on any device. Enter the code and you’re in — full 3D, two-way audio.

Use Cases

Three Modes, One Platform

Not just training. Workshop is a real-time 3D collaboration layer for any scenario where teams need to look at the same equipment together.

Training & Onboarding

An instructor in VR walks through a heat exchanger, pointing at components and explaining procedures. 30 trainees follow along on laptops in a Teams meeting — each with a fully interactive 3D model they can orbit and zoom.

Instructor in VR → Trainees on any device

Product Design Reviews

An engineering team opens a CAD model during their weekly review. The lead highlights problem areas from VR while mechanical, electrical, and manufacturing teams inspect the model on their desktops.

Design lead in VR → Team on desktops & tablets

Field Maintenance & Support

A technician at a remote site joins a Teams call from whatever device they already carry — phone, tablet, or a hands-free device like RealWear. Nothing changes for them. At HQ, senior engineers load the equipment’s 3D model in Workshop, identify the failed component, annotate it in 3D, and talk the tech through the repair — with a level of visual detail a flat video feed can’t match.

Case Study

Lockout/Tagout Training — Without the Factory Floor

A live Workshop session where trainees identify every LOTO point on industrial equipment — guided by an instructor in VR while remote participants follow along on any screen.

The Equivalent of Walking the Factory Floor — From Anywhere

In this live Workshop session, an instructor wearing a VR headset walks a trainee through every lockout/tagout point on a complex industrial machine. The trainee must identify each LOTO location, describe the correct lockout procedure, and demonstrate understanding of energy isolation — all on a realistic 3D model of the actual equipment.

Remote participants join from any device — desktop, tablet, phone, or a Microsoft Teams meeting tab. They see the same 3D model, follow the instructor’s viewpoint in real time, and can independently orbit, zoom, and inspect components on their own screen.

This replaces the traditional approach of physically walking trainees to the factory floor, shutting down production, and hoping everyone can see what the instructor is pointing at. With Workshop, the machine is always available, always safe to inspect, and every participant gets a front-row seat.

What This Replaces

Production Floor Walkthrough

No need to shut down equipment or schedule floor access for every training session.

Travel for SME-Led Training

Your subject matter expert trains from anywhere — no flights, no hotel, no scheduling conflicts.

Static LOTO Diagrams

Flat diagrams can’t show spatial relationships. A 3D model lets trainees see exactly where each energy source and isolation point lives.

OSHA 1910.147 Compliance

Machine-specific LOTO training mapped to control of hazardous energy standards — with documentation for audit readiness.
