HTX Labs Partners With Solvay GBU Peroxides North America to Develop Virtual Reality Training Simulations
HTX Labs Awarded SBIR Phase by US Air Force for Virtual Reality Training Program
HTX Labs, LLC is a recent recipient of a U.S. Air Force Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I award. The award provides funding for the continued development of training simulations built on HTX Labs’ EMPACT® Virtual Reality (VR) platform...
We create amazing virtual reality experiences that simulate the real world, better preparing your people for work they do every day and the incidents they never expect.
Interactive experiences promote learning by doing to raise retention rates near 75%
Life-like virtual environments offer an immersive experience that approaches reality
Deploy immersive content throughout your enterprise across multiple VR devices
Built specifically for the enterprise, EMPACT is our flagship software platform used to create and deliver both off-the-shelf Active Shooter and Fire Safety courses and customized immersive training experiences. By designing a platform with ease of implementation, scalability, network security, and corporate systems integration in mind from day one, we have created the industry standard of enterprise-level immersive technology.
Built specifically for the enterprise, EMPACT
is our flagship software platform used to create and
deliver off-the- shelf and customized immersive training experiences. Immersive technologies have been
primarily built with a consumer focus, inherently ignoring the needs of a large business enterprise: ease of
implementation, scalability, network security, and corporate systems integration. By designing a platform
to meet these needs from day one, we have created the industry standard of enterprise-level technology
to deliver high-value immersive experiences to the business enterprise. EMPACT currently offers Fire
Safety and Active Shooter training content with ongoing development of additional courses in collaboration with our strategic alliance partners.
Workplace safety is a top priority and critical differentiating factor for industrial contractors and facility operators. High quality training is instrumental in creating a culture of safety for your workforce. HTX Labs offers highly effective immersive training, using Virtual Reality(VR), that provides a safe environment for your workforce to develop situational awareness and prepare them to identify and mitigate potentially unsafe situations. Constructability - the ability to virtually walk a refinery or facility before it’s been built or during the construction phase - provides a great opportunity to identify issues that can be resolved much more cost-effectively than if done after construction. Walking the facility in VR provides this opportunity for facilities engineers and operations personnel to collaborate on issue resolution before project completion.
Learn MoreNot a day goes by when we don’t see news coverage of a structure fire involving critical injuries. The majority of fire-related injuries is actually due to smoke inhalation rather than burns from heat or flames. This course focuses on making a safe escape from the area but also instructs on the need to stay low to avoid the smoke, isolate the fire by restricting air flow, and alert others of the situation. In combination with our customized virtual environments, your people will know exactly where to go to quickly and to safely get out of harm's way. Our Fire Safety training course was developed under the guidance of first responders from the Houston Fire Department.

HTX Labs has collaborated with the U. S. Air Force to develop a fully-immersive Emergency Procedure (EP) training simulation as part of their Pilot Training Next (PTN) initiative to address the existing pilot shortage through the use of more efficient and effective training methods. The HTX EP training simulation places a student pilot in a virtual Beechcraft T-6 cockpit and presents the pilot with various emergency scenarios that require them to physically perform the procedure which increases the pilot’s retention through an active learning experience. This type of emergency training is difficult or impossible to perform in a real aircraft making it a perfect application for virtual reality.

Each organization is unique and has its own specific needs when it comes to learning and training. We'll work side-by-side with your organization to leverage our software platform and engineering expertise to define, develop and deliver custom immersive experiences specifically for your organization, your people and your facility. We’ve broken the mold of custom solutions by building experiences atop the EMPACT platform to provide enterprise-class delivery, support, and ongoing maintenance.
We believe training is most effective when you have the right content presented in the right environment. In addition to developing custom courses, we can virtualize your facility from 2D floor plans or 3D models to create an exact virtual replica of your real-world space. When used together, custom content and virtual environments can create the most powerful training experiences available.
