Abstract

This paper presents the ongoing development of a Proof-of-Concept Virtual Reality (VR) system for staff training for Tan Tock Seng Hospital mass decontamination of Hazardous and Toxic Materials (HAZMAT) and/or radioactively contaminated casualties. As a Proof-of-Concept, the initial prototype focuses on allowing users to practice using a chemical scanner device that would be used to scan casualties for leftover chemical hazards. The preliminary development demonstrates the advantages of utilizing VR for supplementing current decontamination training in a safe and economical way.
