VR training platform for manufacturing and life sciences

Mersus Technologies builds VR training around your own processes, equipment and procedures, and offers ready-made courses for common skills. It all runs on Avatar Academy, the VR training platform for manufacturing, biopharma and medical device teams. Customers include Boston Scientific, Freudenberg Medical, J&J and Siemens.

Why teams choose Avatar Academy

Scalable

One site licence covers unlimited operators, so every site and shift trains the same way.

Faster ramp-up

Freudenberg Medical reports 75% less training lead time and a 50% lower scrap rate.

On demand

Trainees practise the moment they need to, on any shift, without waiting for a trainer.

Every session is logged as a learner record, giving you evidence for your own sign-off.

Off the line

Practise real production scenarios, emergency stops included, without stopping a machine.

Hands-on

Hand tracking with no controllers or wires: learn, practise, then prove it in a scored run.
