Event details

Language:

We invite you to an inspiring XR Day focused on safety and security, where we explore how new technology can be used in a responsible, safe, and operationally relevant way.

During the day, several experts will participate and share experiences, research, and practical examples of how XR can contribute to increased safety, improved education, and safer ways of working. There will also be opportunities to try different XR solutions on site.

What is XR?

XR stands for Extended Reality and is an umbrella term for technologies that create experiences beyond the ordinary physical world:

VR (Virtual Reality) – you are fully immersed in a virtual world (e.g., through VR headsets)
AR (Augmented Reality) – digital objects are displayed on top of the real world (e.g., Pokémon Go on a mobile phone)
MR (Mixed Reality) – digital objects can interact with real-world objects (e.g., Apple Vision Pro)

Today, XR is used for training, simulation, education, and support in complex or high-risk situations. XR allows us to train for the future—safely, responsibly, and in advance.

Study Visit to Helsingborg Safety Hub
Between 13:15 and 15:45, a limited number of slots are available to visit Helsingborg Safety Hub at Mindpark, address Bredgatan 11.

Groundbreaking research on safety and security is conducted here, focusing on areas such as fire safety, traffic safety, work environment, and epidemiology. In their modern laboratory environments, technologies such as virtual reality, driving simulators, and large-scale data analysis are used to develop the safety solutions of the future.

Take the opportunity to experience how research meets practice – we look forward to your visit!
Pre-registration is required.
