From Fatigue to Engagement: The Case for Immersive Learning in Compliance Training
- Immersive learning has emerged as an innovative solution to transform compliance training from a checkbox task into an impactful, practical, and engaging experience.
- Traditional compliance training approaches which rely on passive information delivery methods fall short in engaging learners leading to low engagement, poor retention, lack of real-world application, and compliance fatigue.
- Ineffective compliance training can put organizations at risk of costly penalties, cultural erosion, and employee disengagement.
- Immersive learning, by leveraging gamification, storytelling, simulations, video and cutting-edge technologies such as VR and AR, resolves the challenges of traditional methods by heightening engagement, improving retention, enabling practical application, and enhancing decision-making skills.
- Scenario-based learning, game-based learning, and simulation training offer realistic situations where learners can apply compliance knowledge while video-based learning and story-based learning capture attention by making compliance content relatable and impactful.
- Through VR and AR, learners can experience hands-on the complexities of compliance and receive immediate, contextual training while AI-driven adaptive learning, and extended reality personalize learning to each employee's needs, making compliance training more useful.
- Immersive learning creates more significant financial gains by driving measurable reductions in compliance violations, minimizing legal and reputational costs, and reducing employee time spent wading through compliance training materials.
- By leveraging immersive learning as part of the employee training program, organizations can foster a culture of compliance and integrity, providing a competitive edge in a highly regulated environment and avoiding costly non-compliance violations.

Hands-on: Varjo XR-4 Focal Edition takes passthrough to the next level
- The Varjo XR-4 is a high-resolution headset for enterprises, primarily for companies where graphical resolution is of paramount importance.
- The device features 3840 x 3744 resolution per eye, and a 120° x 105° field of view.
- The Varjo XR-4 Focal Edition features an equivalent pixel density of 51 PPD.
- Autofocus actions from the eye-tracking of the headset drives the autofocus of the 20 MP passthrough cameras.
- This provides a passthrough with an incredibly crisp texture and a 51 PPD pixel density.
- Retina resolution is generally considered to be around 60 PPD, so the Varjo XR-4 Focal Edition is very close to what human vision requires.
- The high resolution, however, is only available inside a small, rectangular region, and there is a noticeable lag when moving the eyes from one object to another.
- Reducing the lag and blurring the edges of the high-definition focus area could help this headset provide clearer visuals.
- Passthrough vision could presumably become as crisp as our regular vision, enabling us to complete tasks without having to remove our headset entirely.
- However, the device costs €10,000, which could pose a potential hurdle for many enterprises.
