After a break due to the pandemic, the Rema Tip Top Academy resumed training operations for users of Rema Tip Top repair systems in March 2022. In the course of the re-start, the classroom training programme was expanded to include webinars. In short, Rema Tip Top has taken a step towards the virtualisation of its course, with “a smart software solution and state-of-the-art video technology.”
“The demand for professional remote training in tyre repair is growing,” said Michel Seguin, senior technical advisor at Rema Tip Top Academy, adding: “That’s why we decided to offer online training in the form of webinars, as well as a more interactive way to teach the practical use of Rema Tip Top products for tire repair.”
Using “data glasses” worn by the training staff, the repair of car, truck, AS and EM/OTR tyres is streamed live to the screens of the training participants. This way, participants see exactly what the trainers see on-site through the data glasses, providing them with an excellent view of what is happening.
Video broadcasting via data glasses is supplemented by video cameras at the Rema Tip Top Academy. These cameras allow the tyre repair to be transmitted from different perspectives. On-screen participants thus receive the same vivid training experience as the participants on site.
The use of video technology also enables hybrid training, where part of the participants follow the training on-site and part remotely. Rema Tip Top Academy uses the “oculavis SHARE” software solution when it comes to online training. According to the company, the service platform is designed to meet the needs of industrial processes and has been developed for connecting experts and technicians.
