How does a train driver learn to make the right decisions in critical situations? This important skill is developed long before they ever face a real-life scenario. The foundation of this training often lies in the use of advanced simulators. These simulators provide a controlled and safe environment where even the most dangerous situations can be practiced without risk to the driver, passengers, or equipment. Simulators enable train drivers to hone their decision-making and operational skills by replicating highly realistic conditions.

The realism of the simulated environment is crucial. The more lifelike the simulation, the better it prepares the participants' brains and bodies to react effectively under pressure. Several factors contribute to this realism: visual perception, physical plausibility of the experiences, acoustics, and haptics. Among these, visual perception is paramount. It is the most intricate and significant sense, engaging the largest areas of the brain. Accurate visual representation helps trainees immerse themselves in the scenario, making their reactions and decisions more intuitive and effective.
