Debriefing

The SIMStation Debriefing Set can be set up within a distance of up to 100m from the training room. Debriefing can be carried out independent of the Recording Station, as the Debriefing Box has its own built-in Player PC. All playback devices, from projectors to conference AV installations, can be connected via HDMI and audio output.

The SIMStation Tablet shows the markers and annotations which were previously set during the training scenario. The trainer uses the tablet like a remote control for the playback of significant video scenes. Moreover, the SIMStation tablet also allows seamless integration of PowerPoint presentations and instructional videos in the video debriefing, in addition to the recorded training videos.

Highly scalable Modular concept. Any number of training, control and debriefing rooms can be linked to a SIMNet by con­necting the components via conventional network cables or Wi-Fi. The installation work required is therefore minimal. Newly connected components such as cameras, tablets or network storage are automatically detected and integrated into the SIMNet. The SIMStation Tablets are not bound to specific rooms, but can instead be used by the instructor in every room. The network-based architecture also makes it possible to connect multiple centres – or make simulations accessible – over the internet. High scalability. The modular concept behind SIMStation’s product range makes it the ideal choice for all simulation centres wishing to expand their facilities, premises and capacity over the years. It is possible to start out with a basic configuration and later expand the system step by step through the addition of further components. In contrast to conventional, centralised and server-based systems, which from the outset must be set up with any potential future upgrades to maximum capacity already in mind, SIMStation is a modern, modulated system, which automatically, using the principle of a “private cloud”, uses the resources of all connected devices and expands their capacity with every additional component added. Reference projects. In our young history we have realised numerous projects throughout Europe, the US and the Middle East. The range extends from mobile in situ simulation systems and medium scale simulation centres in hospitals and paramedic schools, all the way up to major training and educational centres at medical universities. Amongst our many renowned clients we count university clinics in Zurich (Switzerland), Vienna (Austria), Munich (Germany), London (UK), Paris (France), Riyadh (Saudi Arabia) and Karachi (Pakistan).

Simulation Room

Control Room

Debriefing Room

Unique Software The SIMStation Control Room Software is the control centre of the SIMStation system. At the same time, it’s in­credibly easy to operate: simply by clicking on the clearly-marked buttons, you can start and stop the recording. The cameras’ video signals are transmitted and recorded in unparalleled, full HD quality without any time delay. PTZ cameras can be easily steered directly through the software, and every connected microphone can be switched on and off directly from the touchscreen. Using preconfigured icons, which can be modified in the included icon editor, you are able to mark and annotate important events during the training in a uniquely straight­ forward manner.

The SIMStation Tablet, linked via Wi-Fi, is the instructor’s universally applicable “personal assistant”. It can of course be used during training to set markers and annotations, but what really makes it special is how it facilitates a whole new dimension of quality and efficiency in video-supported debriefing. The instructor does not need to operate any other computers to bring up the videos; they simply use the tablet in their hands, upon which all markers and annotations have been clearly and logically listed during the recording. One click on a marker is all it takes to start playing back the appropriate scene on a TV panel or projector. PDF, PowerPoint and Learning Videos can also be seamlessly called up via the tablet and integrated into the debriefing.

The new SIMStation Student and Audience Tablets were created with the goal of being better able to accommodate spectators of simulation training, as well as allowing training participants to quickly and efficiently gather feedback. As such, participants can fill in the instructor’s questionnaires and give their own evaluation during the training, which can then be collected, analysed and displayed in graphic form by the SIMStation software directly, and instantly be in­ corporated into the debriefing.

Top mobility alongside top quality. This was the demand, in response to which, with the assistance of renowned simulation trainers from Europe and the US, we designed our system. When choosing each individual component, we ensured that it was lightweight and could be stored in a way which saved space. All components have been clearly arranged in individual lightweight aluminium flight cases.

Lightweight and space-saving. Each case can be lifted by one person, problem-free and with only medium effort. All the equipment fits inside a standard-sized car, and can be quickly installed at each training place.

Flexible and upgradeable at any time! The basic equipment of the SIMStation in situ system can be subsequently upgraded with additional SIMStation components at any point. In this way it is possible to upgrade the components for several training rooms (with up to 20 cameras), several debriefing rooms, as well as several control rooms, and so, from a mobile, flexible basic system, outfit a fully-fledged, multifunctional simulation centre step by step.
