The Babcock Immersive Training Experience (BITE) is a state-of-the-art product which exposes trainees to operationally accurate scenarios, replicating the intensity of multi-domain operations by delivering physical, sensory, and cognitive challenges to users via seismic simulation, visual stimuli, and environmental effects.

These features help bridge the gap between the sterile classroom and complex live operations – and thanks to its modular, scalable and deployable design can be exploited globally, enhancing mission readiness.

Following BITE’s unveiling in the UK earlier this year, I/ITSEC will mark its stateside debut, providing attendees with the opportunity to experience first-hand the remarkable realism which delivers an unmatched training experience across a variety of relevant use cases.

For I/ITSEC, BITE has been designed specifically to replicate the challenges of dispersed command and control in a multidomain environment and can be configured for multiple scenarios across land, air, sea and resilience domains.  

Jo Rayson, Managing Director, Babcock’s Training Business said: “BITE will transform training by providing users with unparalleled immersion. It gives them the tools and experiences they need to thrive in the most demanding scenarios, while being delivered in a safe and entirely controlled environment.

“Working under extreme pressure in a command and control room, whilst being physically exposed to smoke and odours as the building shakes from a nearby air attack is necessary to test war fighters to the limit.

“BITE delivers this level of realism in an innovative way like no other product – and adds further value by generating rich and objective training performance insights, speeding up the learning process and reducing demand on operational assets to provide a more cost-effective way to train.”
