Virtual reality (VR) is an immersive simulated experience, that can replicate similar real-world environments and/or places, or show new fictional environments or worlds.

Augmented reality (AR) is an interactive experience with a real-world environment. Computer-generated objects are shown through AR devices onto the environment in front of you.

Mixed reality (MR) is the blend of the real world and a virtual world. Digital graphics like user interfaces, images, and video assets are shown on top of the user's view of the real-world, bridging the gap between what is real and what isn't.

Extended reality (XR) is the overarching term for virtual, augmented and mixed reality. Extended reality pushes the envelope in experiences, from entertainment to learning, further than what we as humans are capable of achieving in the real world exclusively.

XR technology is transforming the entire work experience, from learning, to collaboration and into the field. XR technology is providing the immersive experience to effectively and efficiently train learners to develop their soft or hard skills before applying these skills in the field. Traditional collaboration platforms are changing, and XR is playing a vital role in this transformation. Through XR, users can collaborate and connect with anyone, anywhere, at any time. Although XR has a significant presence within learning and development, it is extending further and is being adopted into field processes through AR applications.

Extended Reality (XR) learning is education delivered via VR, AR, or MR hardware and/or software. XR immerses learners in a virtual environment to simulate real-world scenarios, or augments their view of the world with AR guides, references, and real-time learning.

XR has proven to deliver exponential learning results. A study that Talespin partnered with PwC on revealed that VR learners were 4x faster train than in the classroom, 3.75x more emotionally connected to content, 275% more confident to apply what they learned, 4x more focused than e-learners and is 52% more cost effective at scale.

XR is being applied to both hard skill training use cases for learning processes and objects, as well as soft skills training use cases for key leadership and communication skills. Evaluating potential use cases in your organization where XR can help to accelerate training and reduce training costs is the first step in adopting the technology.

Talespin's XR learning content and platform are hardware agnostic. Our products work on: Meta Quest 2 & Pro, as well as desktop streaming on Mac and PC devices. While we are a native XR platform, we also delivering immersive learning and productivity applications to 2D devices. All Talespin learning content can easily be deployed to users, regardless of their physical location.

Because each organization has different goals and priorities, we will work with you to develop a customized package that aligns with your budget. Some factors that we will consider include the number of learners, training content needs from our off-the-shelf content catalog, and any bespoke content needed.

If you are interested in Talespin’s XR platform, contact your Talespin sales representative, or contact us at learnmore@talespin.company. We offer a trial program to try our learning modules first-hand, and realize the efficacy that XR brings to enterprise learning

Talespin training modules are developed through a combination of our proprietary XR learning content production process, and collaboration with subject matter experts. Our Learning Experience Design team develops the core learning structure, narrative and learning goals for all XR learning modules. With extensive experience in XR learning, they develop content that is effective and engaging for adult learners.

To prepare your organization for using Talespin learning applications, we offer a ‘Train the Trainer’ program. Through this program offering, our deployment experts will teach your facilitators how to deploy XR learning applications to your workforce and how to navigate the Runway platform.  Organization training admins have ongoing support from Talespin’s team to ensure that content is deployed effectively.

Yes. Talespin offers trial and pilot programs that allows you and your organization to experience VR learning first-hand, and realize the efficacy of XR learning content before full deployment. Contact us to find out more about our pilot program

Talespin learning content provides the immersive experience for learners to develop the critical skills to excel in their role; such as soft skills, hard skills. CoPilot is Talespin’s soft skills training platform that simulates conversational role-play with AI virtual human characters, accelerating learning for critical communication skills, making learners more confident in subject matter, and increasing knowledge retention. Propel is Talespin's XR hard skills content platform for object- and process-based job simulation. Learning modules built with Propel immerse learners in foundational knowledge, and simulate complex tasks that are typically difficult to train and practice

If you are interested in Talespin’s XR platform, contact your Talespin sales representative, or contact us at learnmore@talespin.company. We offer a trial program to try our learning mLearning modules can differ in the length depending on the content and number of lessons. Typically, they are between 10 to 20 minutesodules first-hand, and realize the efficacy that XR brings to enterprise learning

Yes, Talespin learning content can integrate with LMS platforms. Contact us to discuss your organization's specific requirements.

During lessons, learners receive real-time feedback and the opportunity to try the simulated scenario again to effectively develop the skills in the learning module. After completion of the final scenario, learners receive a final score and feedback communicating how well they showcased the skills taught in the final simulated scenario. The skills shown and achieved are tracked in Runway.

Our trials, pilots and full deployments are all coordinated through our business development team. Please contact us if you are interested.

In the future, we are planning to add this feature to help our users find great new content. Right now managers and admins can view trainings and future trainings in our Runway platform.

Propel is Talespin's XR hard skills content platform for object- and process-based job simulation. Learning modules built with Propel immerse learners in foundational knowledge, and simulate complex tasks that are typically difficult to train and practice.

Runway is Talespin’s enterprise-grade content delivery and skill analytics platform. Through this platform, managers and organizational learning facilitators can track progress of individual learners. Administrators can leverage this platform to identify skills gaps to focus training initiatives, and map career paths for their workforce.

Talespin is not a hardware provider. Our deployment and business development team can assist with introductions to the hardware providers and guide you and your organization through that process.

Talespin's platform will soon support both XR training content and XR field tools for on-the job support. This will integrate the Talespin training and skills data platform with our experience in creating XR field tools for clients, bringing real-time performance support and continuous learning to a wider user base.

Our platform's skills data features will also present new use cases for our users in the near future, such as career pathing for employees, and holistic workforce development insights for organizations.
