The UK’s only road and community safety virtual reality (VR) event is returning for a second year – and delegate registration is now open with an early bird rate.
Organised by FirstCar, in conjunction with Road Safety GB and West Midlands Police, ICE Live aims to raise awareness of the latest research, evaluation, ideas, films and interventions using the rapidly evolving technology.
The 2023 edition will take place at the Tally Ho Conference & Banqueting Centre, Edgbaston, on Wednesday 18 October.
Speakers will be announced in the coming weeks, bit topics set to be covered include:
- Developments in VR hardware
- Pros, cons and solutions for synchronising playback
- Using VR with younger audiences
- Developing interventions using VR
- How to manage risk when using VR
- Building evaluation into your delivery structures
- Using behaviour change theory in VR education and training
The event organisers said: “We’ve listened to delegate feedback from last year’s event and in addition to hosting a line-up of engaging and relevant speakers, we will provide more opportunities for hands-on experiences and focused discussion.
“A particular focus for 2023 will be on the design and delivery of practical interventions using virtual reality hardware and content.
“As usual, there will be an exhibition area, where delegates can talk to suppliers and industry experts, all with interesting products and services to enhance the delivery of VR education and training.”
Delegate registration is now open, with a 10% early bird discount rate available for those who register before 31 March. A discounted rate is also available to RSGB members.
