A domestic small and medium-sized company has conducted ship operation simulation training using XR (extended reality) content for the first time in the world.
Samwoo Immersion (CEO David Kim) announced on the 7th that it conducted 'XR content-based LNG ship cargo management basic training' for new seamen in the shipping industry for two days from the 3rd to the 4th.
Samwoo Immersion developed 'XR cargo management content' in collaboration with SM Group's ship management specialist KLCSM and applied it to seamen's training to complete the 'XR content-based LNG ship cargo management basic training' program.
'XR cargo management content' is VR content that implements various onboard equipment and transported cargo of an actual operating ship as a virtual reality (VR) and 3D model. Training programs utilizing this provide seamen with an experience similar to the actual site before boarding, helping them operate safely and efficiently.

This is the world's first case of applying XR content to eco-friendly LNG ship crew training. High value-added LNG ship crews require more advanced skills and experience than general crews due to the nature of the fuel and cargo.
Samwoo Immersion added closed beta test (CBT) content for familiarizing with the use of 3D models and developed an IAS (Integrated Automation System) simulator for cargo management, completing a total system that can educate the entire LNG ship cargo management and operation process in one place with XR content and equipment.
CEO David Kim said, "The XR total education system can provide practical experience in responding to various operating situations regardless of time, place, or cost." He added, "It will contribute to the training of high value-added eco-friendly ship crews including LNG ships and greatly contribute to reducing costs in the shipping industry."
