VR technology allows us to create a virtual world parallel with the one in the real life. This is very crucial for health and safety training where it is vital to know all the procedures as well as to behave adequately in emergency situations. Simulating a fire at a gas station allows trainers to showcase various situations to enhance future perception of trainees.

In order to handle the emergency situation and minimize fire damage, trainees have to execute the whole set of respective actions on a gas station in Virtual Reality. The solution provides the opportunity to experience the emergency situation, all sound and visual effects add to the immersion into the context. It is possible to interact with necessary objects.
