The AirVR Door Trainer
Cabin crew deserve more than static mockups.
The AirVR Door Trainer combines true physical resistance with immersive VR to deliver the most realistic aircraft door training available — right at your base.

How it works
The Door Trainer is a compact and intelligent training solution that installs directly at your base, requiring only 6 m² of space.
Within virtual reality, we create a digital twin of your galley or over-wing exit area and customize every drill to match your airline’s specific SOPs.
Using advanced hand-tracking technology (no controllers needed), trainees can naturally operate the door handles, while a robotic system precisely replicates all key handle positions - allowing them to feel the true weight and resistance of the door.
By combining immersive VR and real-world robotics, the system delivers a seamless and realistic simulation of any aircraft door operation.
Purpose-built for mandatory boarding and recurrent door training, the Door Trainer supports multiple aircraft types and scenarios, ensuring realism, flexibility, and consistent performance in every session.
Benefits
Train Any Door. Any Scenario. Anywhere.
One robot, multiple aircraft types
A single AirVR Door Trainer robot can simulate various aircraft doors - including galley doors, over-wing exits, and cockpit hatches.
Once your Door Trainer is installed, adding new aircraft types requires only the customization of new drills, making expansion fast and cost-efficient.
Train across all aircraft types and special scenarios
Practice procedures for any situation - external fire, door jamming, power-assist failure, and more.
Run drills with or without tutorials or guidance hints, adapting the training to each trainee’s experience level.
Train more crew with fewer instructor hours
Let VR handle repetitive instruction and correction, freeing instructors to focus on critical learning moments and performance evaluation.
Turn every session into measurable performance data
All training data is automatically recorded and compiled into comprehensive reports, highlighting common trainee errors and skill development trends.
Immerse trainees in realistic conditions
Enhance realism with stressors such as smoke, fire, water, and ambient noise, creating a lifelike, high-pressure environment.
Reduce training footprint and costs without compromising realism
The AirVR Door Trainer delivers a significantly more efficient and adaptable alternative to traditional door training methods - saving both time and cost while improving learning outcomes.
System components
Robot & Robot Controller
The core mechanical system that replicates door movements and handle positions with precision.
Control PC & Hub
Central computing unit for managing VR simulation, robot coordination, and data recording.
VR Headset
Provides an immersive training environment with high-fidelity visuals and hand-tracking technology.
Stationary Handle Stand
Supports fixed and wall-mounted handles used for specific door configurations.
Control Panel
Includes emergency stop and power on/off buttons for safety and easy operation.
Additionally, it's recommended to install a large LCD screen (not included) so that other trainees can observe the training sessions and benefit from the learning experiences of their peers.
All updates are seamlessly deployed by AirVR to the headset and PC that control the robot as needed, ensuring the system remains current with the latest features and enhancements.
