The granted patent (Publication Number: US11857818B2) discloses an apparatus designed as a pump panel training device for fire truck operators. The apparatus includes simulated gages and controls that mimic those found on a fire truck pump panel, along with a simulated water hose that can imitate water temperature changes, pressure variations, and hose vibrations. The water hose component consists of a hose portion with a round fitting on one end and a sealed end on the other, which can be filled with either water or air. Additionally, the apparatus features a display capable of rendering graphics, including a touch screen for user interaction and an external display to showcase a simulated environment surrounding the training device.

Moreover, the apparatus incorporates virtual reality technology through a virtual reality visor, where the simulated gages are displayed as graphics for an immersive training experience. It also includes a computerized device that enables augmented reality functionality, rendering the simulated gages on the device for training purposes. This innovative apparatus aims to provide a realistic and interactive training environment for fire truck operators to enhance their skills in handling pump panels effectively. By combining simulated elements with advanced display technologies, the apparatus offers a comprehensive training solution that can improve the proficiency and readiness of individuals tasked with operating fire truck pump panels in emergency situations.
