Virtual Reality offers significant training benefits as it provides an immersive and experiential opportunity for an operator to test their skills. Unlike flight simulators, a forklift simulator NEEDS virtual reality to truly replicate the operator experience. Flight simulators, heavy equipment simulators, and to some extent nearly any cockpit based vehicle simulator can get away with a multi-screen experience as the operator is wholly contained in the cockpit looking out windows. However a forklift operator benefits from using virtual reality because it provides an exact replicate of their environment as they move their head, tilt it and turn it.
