FightARs application

FightARs App was developed during an Erasmus+ funded project.

It was a trial to test Augmented Reality (AR) / Mixed Reality (MR) potential in training fire fighters. FightARs project partners have created a teaser that helps to make the first step to identify different functionalities. Partners are interested to cooperate with various future paartners and continue work on immersive technologies in trainings.

You can dowload the app below.

Please keep in mind that it will work with HoloLens2 type AR/MR glasses.

FightARs Best Practice Guide

Within 2,5 years the FightARs project partners have achieved a lot and most of the insights are presented in this Best Practice Guide (part of IO3 outcome).

In adition, piloting partners have established Centers of Excellence which ensure sustainability and usage of immersive technolgies in the fire fighting training organisations in Estonia, Lithuania, Czech Republic and Slovakia. You can get more information about development of these centers in the guide.
