Distracted Driving Awareness
Scenarios
Client: Confidential (Under NDA)
Project
Type: Virtual Reality Safety Awareness Training (Proof of
Concept)
Platforms: Meta Quest VR
Headsets
Technologies: Unity 3D, C#, Oculus SDK, Localization
Support
Simam Digital was commissioned by a creative
agency partner to design and develop an immersive VR safety training simulation aimed at
raising awareness of distracted driving risks in an industrial workforce.
The
application was deployed during an internal corporate safety event, allowing dozens of
employees to step inside high-impact, realistic driving scenarios. The goal was to educate,
influence, and inspire behavioral change by showing the real-world consequences of fatigue,
distraction, and speeding — all within a safe, controlled VR environment.
This
project served as a proof of concept to demonstrate how VR can significantly enhance safety
outcomes compared to traditional training methods.
VR Simulation
Accident Visualizations
Three Realistic Scenarios – Simulated
high-risk driving situations:
Fatigue – Microsleep incidents at the
wheel.
Distraction – Mobile phone use, in-car disruptions, environmental
hazards.
Speeding – Reduced reaction times and collision
risk.
Multi-Region Localization – North America & Europe variations, with
English and Tagalog language support.
Immersive First-Person POV – Placed the
user directly in the driver’s seat with full 360° 3D visuals.
Realistic Road
Environments – Traffic signs, pedestrian crossings, dynamic vehicle AI, and emergency
response sequences.
Impactful Accident Visualizations – Simulated crash sequences
followed by emergency services arrival, reinforcing the consequences.
Engagement
at Scale – Used throughout a full-day safety event, cycling employees through sessions
in quick 2-minute scenario loops.
Core Contributions:
VR Application
Development – Built the entire experience in Unity 3D with Oculus SDK
integration.
Interactive UI & Prompts – Designed intuitive on-screen
instructions, controller tutorials, and interactive decision points.
State
Machine & Event Timing – Controlled scenario flow, timed events, and triggered
accident sequences.
Localization Support – Integrated English and Tagalog text
options with regional road asset variations.
Performance Optimization –
Maintained smooth performance for repeated use on Meta Quest devices without overheating
or crashes.
Safety & Restart Logic – Added auto-restart on headset removal
for continuous event operation.

Impact
The VR
simulation was met with extremely positive feedback from the agency partner and the end client.
Employees reported that the first-person crash experiences were immersive, prompting immediate
reflection on their own driving habits.
Key outcomes included:
Higher engagement
than traditional lecture or video training.
Emotional impact that encouraged behavior
change discussions.
A successful proof of concept that demonstrated use of immersive
technology for training purposes.
If you’re looking to create immersive experiences,
innovative apps, or AI-powered solutions that deliver real impact, Simam Digital can help.
