A BETTER INSPECTOR / INDUSTRIAL TRAINING

Bringing
Experience
Forward

Practice inspection scenarios before you encounter them in the field. Explore immersive training and inspection tools that give inspectors access to more conditions earlier in their careers.

For inspectors, instructors, and the teams developing them.

WHY WE BUILD

Experience takes time.
Exposure can start sooner.

Some damage conditions are rare. Large equipment is difficult to bring into a classroom. The right inspection, instructor, and trainee do not always come together at the right time.

Simulation gives instructors another way to introduce those situations, repeat a task, and talk through the decisions behind an inspection. It adds practice alongside classroom learning and on-the-job training.

THE PRODUCTS

Built around the work inspectors do.

Explore the inspection experience, the growing training library, and tools you can carry into your day.

01 / API PRACTICALS

Put inspection knowledge into practice.

Explore virtual equipment, examine damage conditions, and work through where to inspect and which tools to use. The demonstration shows interactive tools and measurable damage in a mixed-reality environment.

Why it matters: Learners can discuss an inspection decision while standing in front of the same scenario.

02 / NDT TRAINING IN DEVELOPMENT

A growing library of inspection scenarios.

Our development work spans radiation safety, radiography, ultrasonic testing, MT/PT, and PMI/VT. Explore examples of how inspection methods can become interactive training tasks.

Why it matters: Repeatable scenarios give instructors a shared starting point for practice and discussion.

THE ROLE OF SIMULATION

More practice.
With instructors and field experience.

OJT builds judgment through real equipment, access conditions, and responsibilities. Simulation supports that process by giving learners additional exposure before the next field opportunity.

Instructors can use a shared scenario to demonstrate a technique, ask why a choice was made, and repeat the exercise. ABI is also exploring shared virtual environments for mentoring at a distance.

Experiences can use physical movement and mixed-reality views. Comfort varies by person and scenario; passthrough does not guarantee a discomfort-free session.
