StaplesVR

StaplesVR is a company that builds virtual reality and augmented reality training for aviation, defence and national security. It was founded in 2014 in Auckland, New Zealand. It has teams in New Zealand, Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom.

The company says it serves more than 50 enterprise clients across defence and aviation. It sells training as a managed subscription. The package includes the headsets, the software and support, so the training team does not need to buy or set up hardware. Data from each session goes to an analytics dashboard that shows scores and results.

The aviation library has 19 training modules. The listed modules include aircraft safety familiarisation, an A320 engine ground run, A320 cabin crew door training, an A320 pre-flight inspection and a B787 engine ground run. Coming soon are borescope, an A380 slide descent, A320 de-icing and pushback procedures. Each module has a step by step learning part and a scored assessment. The modules are for cabin crew, engineers, ground operations staff and pilots, and suit airlines and flight schools.

A second product line covers defence operations in maritime, air, land and space settings. The board includes a co-founder of ForeFlight.

The site offers a button to book a strategy session and a contact form. The Auckland address is 525 Rosebank Road, Avondale.
