Abstract

This paper presents novel application possibilities in industrial environments based on the experiences of disaster events, using the ecosystem of the B-prepared Horizon Europe project. The most important task of the project is to offer novel and effective solutions to prepare EU citizens for disaster situations. This topic addresses safety and resilience as priorities of EU policy. To achieve this goal, we process past disaster events and create various gamified services that are available to interested participants in an interactive and playful form. This solution uses a richly populated community knowledge-sharing portal and offers products available on multiple platforms: web, mobile, Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR). The applied approach is the theory of psychological vaccination, also known as stress vaccination training, a promising proactive tool used to prepare the population for disasters, and focuses on the preliminary strengthening of resilience and coping skills. The content packages available in each product are parts of a model used in a dedicated solution development process and for preparing all actors facing future hazards and disaster situations, which also occur during industrial production and manufacturing. The experiences gained during the completion of the project and the implemented B-prepared Ecosystem comprise a strong and reliable resource for this approach.
