Championship lead after crashing twice forced him to retire from the race at misano. Morbidelli got a brilliant start from second on the grid to overtake pole sitter maverick vinales and then lead the race to the chequered flag. Thats all from sportsday. Ican i can tell you that australia are 82 for two in their reply at. 232 the target. You can follow it all online. That is it from us. Now its time for click. Hey, welcome to click. Hope youre doing 0k. If youve got kids, then i hope the whole back to school thing is going as well as it can do. To be honest, here, it is all a bit like that. Hows it going with you, lara . Its tricky, isnt it . I remember going back as a young child as though it was yesterday, when clearly it is not, and i think, as parents, we relive that whole experience through our children. Yeah, we certainly do, we certainly do, and, lets face it, education is just going to feel different this year. It is also going to be different depending on the age of the kids. Really Young Children will probably be asked to bubble within a year group. Older children will be asked to follow stricter rules. And universities, well, theyre facing a whole world of challenges. Yes, theyre getting set to reopen, and for many, there will be some in person education, but the role of remote
learning is going to be more important than ever. But for some courses, its notjust about listening to a lecture the practical is just as important. So i took a trip to an empty University Science department to see how virtual labs could transform education as we know it. Lets go. Please wear a lab coat before entering the lab. Wheres my lab coat . Oh, there. Most will be learning via a laptop, but for some, Virtual Reality will place them in the experiment. And today, i get to be a science student. What type of molecule is shown in the picture above . Ill go for dna. You are a genius. Im a genius 0k, it was one question. I just want to press all the buttons. But not everything goes right first time. Modules like this can let students learn about dangerous subjects safely. Meanwhile, others let you bend the rules of reality. Lets use an Inverted Microscope to have a look at some cells. Im actually inside a cell, which is, of course, not something you could do in real life. Weird. And the simulations give students access to expensive kit that not all universities could afford. In real life, this microscope would cost around £150,000. At least this means more people can actually interact with this, albeit virtually. The Vr Experience was a bit glitchy, and another obvious issue is that not everyone has a vr headset. But for universities like this one, its the pc version thats proving vital through the pandemic. 0bviously, when covid came along, we wanted to bring the virtual lab into every students home, but in the context of an online seminar, where its led by an academic, and theyre asked questions, theyre checked on their knowledge as they go through the workshop. Globally, over a Million Students have already accessed labsters tools, and the company says that the pandemic is accelerating adoption. As an example, the California CommunityCollege System that has two Million Students, based on the urgent need, we entered a partnership with them in less than one month, and now theyre rolling out to hundreds of thousands of students right away. Whether donning a headset or on a screen, users could also do a spot of surgery, go on a field trip or even visit mars. If you want to keep exploring the lab, feel free to do so. You can say hello to our iguana or have a look. Theres a rodent. Is that a mouse . 0k, there are some things id rather only see virtually. And learning through vr isntjust for students. Professionals have been doing it too. 0mar mehtabs been finding out how the Emergency Services have been
putting these to good use. With Emergency Services being stretched thin and social distancing in place, it means face to face training isnt as easy as it used to be. But that doesnt mean that they cant still be trained. Sure, people have been using video calling or slide presentations, but what about. Virtual reality . First up, firefighting. Vobling have created a platform where you can customise a Fire Training scenario. This extinguisher that they provide has been fitted with trackers to make it feel like you are operating a real one and notjust a couple of controllers. But what about the more serious scenarios . Rivr have created a way for firefighters to learn almost on the go. By filming 360 degree videos of big, expensive set ups, firefighters can
put on a wireless headset and go through the training as if they were there. Now, looking at this, i thought, isnt this just playing a video . How exactly can this be any more useful in Virtual Reality . Simply, we cant get those venues on a day to day basis because we cantjust set fire to buildings. That also costs us in the region of between £10,000 £15,000 a time. So we ran a brief feedback session this morning with the crews that actually attended the scenario and a number of other people have seen it who didnt go, and they were really engaged, almost entering the scenario themselves, verbally talking about what theyd do, how they do it. Right, that is what is going on with firefighting. Lets move on to health care. Fundamental vr systems helps train surgeons and nurses on how to perform certain tasks during procedures. By using haptic feedback through the tools, the user can feel how they are doing in the virtual procedure. Is this on something, is it. Am i touching something . No, its in the air. And the system is also accredited, which means it is also a way for some in health care to earn credits for their course. And their multi user system means students can remotely patch in to virtual surgeries, to watch and learn an alternative to traditional learning and examination. So the pandemic has just accelerated, in my view, a trend that was already taking place, and that is about being able to go 2a hours a day into a learning environment, now that they cant get into the operating room as easily as they used to, the numbers of cases are dramatically reduced. People dont want to come into hospital at the moment, and this is an opportunity to fill some of that gap. Thats health care done. So, finally, lets look at the police. We went out to the Police Constabulary in derbyshire where officers are learning how and when to use a taser in Virtual Reality. Normally, youd be taught in a room
where someone in a big, blue padded suit would approach you with a rubber knife and officers would use mock taser cartridges to subdue the bad guy, like this. But these cartridges are expensive around £30 a pop, and being in a room in your workplace isnt exactly the same as a life threatening scenario. So Virtual Reality company avrt have created a massive space using these sensor mats where officers can put on a headset and roam around a virtual environment. Would you mind just stepping onto that side for me . They can be transported to a normal street, an alleyway or a rooftop to create a more realistic feeling. And an instructor even adds a voice, so it feels as though youre dealing with a real person. And things got intense. Put the weapon down, put the weapon down stay on the floor, stay on the floor stay on the floor, please it highlights a few flaws
that we have in sort of real Life Training in terms of, obviously, people come to do a role play and there is somebody in a big blue suit, theres a taser suit, and it kind of gives people a precondition of what the things going to happen. So in the vr world, its just nice that we can input certain scenarios that theyre not aware of. I completely mirror that. You do get fully submerged into the scenario, which you dont think you will by putting something over your face and ears. But as soon as that headset goes on, and the headphones go on, you do get straight into it, and you forget about everybody else around you, and you just deal with what youre seeing. And it was time for me to give it a go, to test how immersive it really was, and see if it would affect whether i pulled the trigger or not. Put the knife down hey, take a step back david, david, go back hey, hey. David drop the knife, drop the knife david, stop, stop where youre standing ive got a taser do not get any closer, put the knife down put it down sighs
that dont feel good, honestly. Honestly, i. Twice twice ive gone into that and i have purposely not fired this, and the third time i forced myself to fire it, forced myself, and i hated it, i knew id hate it and i did hate it. I really did feel stressed and the instructors personal responses to what i was saying piled even more pressure on me. I really did think about the gravity of actually firing that taser. I think thats enough, i think weve done enough now. Yeah. We happy . Cool there is, i think, an issue with trust between the public and the police force, and a lot of that is down to how force is deployed by the police force. There is a huge story that goes on, before the deployment of a weapon, before a weapon is even drawn, before any use of force is engaged. We can really capture, right from the start of that first interaction with someone,
measure what sort of empathy were getting from our police officers, and actually make officers accountable for the training of their Decision Making process, right up to and including that use of force. But do these simulations actually help people to learn effectively . One of the Research Challenges is proving the effectiveness of the training. So youre training for a dangerous situation and making sure that transfers to the real world is a challenge because you cant ethically or safely expose people to this dangerous situation, to see how well they perform. What ive seen in this area is that people have a tendency to be very excited about this technology, and perhaps not ask to see the evidence that its effective. I think it should be used cautiously until we have the evidence to use it to a greater extent. So crossing from the real to the Virtual World may seem like an obvious alternative to traditional training, but given how much is on the line
with the work of these Emergency Services, and how new this all is, perhaps its better to use Virtual Reality to complement rather than replace, for now. That is it for the short cut of click for this week, im afraid. Plenty more in the full length version, which is waiting for you right now on iplayer. And as ever, you can keep up with the team on social media. On youtube, instagram, facebook and twitter bbcclick. Thanks for watching. Well see you soon. Bye bye. A lot of fine weather today and it is going to be even warmer tomorrow, perhaps up to 30 celsius
and a couple of hot days in the south east. For most, it will not be quite so warm, but certainly warm enough. This is what it looks like this evening, still in the low or mid 20s in the south, look at western scotland, it has been raining here for nearly 2a hours. Gale force winds around the coast as well, so totally different picture here, but the rain is moving away through this evening and by the end of the night, it is pretty quiet across most of the uk. Clear skies in the south, temperatures down to around ten in the midlands. 11 for belfast and for glasgow so a mild start to monday. Mondays weather forecast, the last of the rain should clear from the western isles, might be bits and pieces of light rain here and there, but nothing more than that. Sunshine for many of us and hot weather in the south east, up to 30, mid 20s at least across yorkshire. Goodbye. This is bbc news, im lukwesa burak.
