On 28th November the third, and last, NAFTES Multiplier Event was held in Athens. The event aimed at informing people about the project, as well as showing the capabilities of the training platform and its applications. Personnel from the organization and representatives of external authorities and companies have been able to get acquainted with the functionalities of NAFTES platform, both in terms of content and applications (especially e-learning and Augmented Reality).

NAFTES 2nd Multiplier Event was taken place in Catania, May 2018

NAFTES 4th Transnational Meeting was taken place in Catania, May 2018.

A five days Training Activity (15 – 19 October 2018) based on NAFTES Advanced Firefighting Training at Hellenic Naval Education Command T.C. Palaskas Damage Control School.

A significant component of the NAFTES training is represented by the Augmented Reality applications, used to provide a more realistic simulated experience.

During the training phases, crew members will be able to visualise objects, information, animations or videos, and perform tests, directly on the Hololens lens. Hololens have been chosen as the main Augmented Reality device used in NAFTES.

The NAFTES members created images and QR codes that, when read by the Hololens, trigger them to generate the AR content of the platform.

The photo shows the Hololens in action.

On 15 November the first NAFTES Multiplier Event was held. The event aimed at informing people of the project, as well as showing the potentialities of the training platform and its applications.

Representatives of external organisations have been able to fully understand the project and the functionalities of the platform, both in terms of content and applications (especially e-learning and Augmented Reality).

The participants also tested firsthand the AR application of NAFTES.

Administrative personnel and technicians of the Greek Academic Network have visited the frigate ‘Aigaion’ and the missile boat ‘Krystallidis’ on July, 24th, 2017.
