Today was a remarkable day as I had the privilege of visiting Sacred Heart College Middle School to showcase the incredible world of Morild Virtual Reality Maritime Simulators. It was an invitation I couldn’t refuse, and I was excited to introduce the students to this cutting-edge technology created by Morild Interaktiv.

The highlight of the day was the demonstration of the Morild Virtual Reality Simulator, a technology that allows students to immerse themselves in the maritime world. This simulator brings the sea to life, offering a realistic experience of maritime scenarios. As a legitimate enthusiast of this technology, I firmly believe that it opens doors to a world of learning and adventure, preparing students for potential careers in the maritime industry.

The experience at Sacred Heart College Middle School was fantastic. I witnessed the students’ fascination and enthusiasm as they put on our VR headsets and explored maritime environments. As an advocate for maritime education, I am convinced that such initiatives are vital for introducing young minds to the possibilities of the maritime world.

Through this demonstration, we hope to inspire the next generation of seafarers, navigators, and maritime professionals. We hope to see some of these students at AMFA in the future!
