Abstract

The contemporary geopolitical environment and strategic uncertainty shaped by asymmetric and hybrid threats urge the future development of hands-on training in realistic environments. Training in immersive, virtual environments is a promising approach. Immersive training can support training for contexts that are otherwise hard to access, dangerous, or have high costs. This paper discusses the challenges for virtual reality training in the CBRN (chemical, biological, radioactive, nuclear) domain. Based on initial considerations and a literature review, we conducted a survey and three workshops to gather requirements for CBRN training in virtual environments. We structured the gathered insights into four overarching themes—the future of CBRN training, ethical and safety requirements, evaluation and feedback, and tangible objects and tools. We provide insights on these four themes and discuss recommendations.

虚拟现实训练在CBRN活动中的挑战

不对称和混合威胁形成的当代地缘政治环境和战略不确定性促使未来在现实环境中发展实践培训。在沉浸式的虚拟环境中进行训练是一种很有前途的方法。沉浸式培训可以支持难以进入、危险或成本高的环境的培训。本文讨论了在CBRN(化学、生物、放射性、核)领域进行虚拟现实训练所面临的挑战。基于最初的考虑和文献回顾，我们进行了一次调查和三次研讨会，以收集虚拟环境中CBRN培训的需求。我们将收集到的见解分为四个主要主题:CBRN培训的未来、道德和安全要求、评估和反馈，以及有形的对象和工具。我们就这四个主题提供见解，并讨论建议。
