As part of the EcoDrive XR project, we regularly visit the Secondary Vocational School of Industrial Technologies in Košice-Šaca to support educators in bringing extended reality (XR) into their classrooms. These hands-on workshops demonstrate how immersive technologies can enhance vocational education and align with the future of green industry.
During our latest session, teachers explored the EcoDrive XR app and XR headsets, gaining firsthand experience with holographic modules focused on electric vehicle manufacturing. Their feedback has been instrumental in refining both the content and usability of the app.
“With this app, learners aren’t just being taught — they’re immersed in the subject. It’s making complex topics easier to understand and much more engaging.”
— School Director
“For the first time, I could show how energy moves through a battery — not just describe it. Watching a 3D model in action completely changed how I teach the topic.”
— Technical Subject Teacher
“It helps translate theory into something tangible. Now we can visualize how EV parts connect and function, without needing a physical lab.”
— Engineering Instructor
“This tool is not only educational — it’s strategic. It supports green career education and helps schools stay aligned with industry needs.”
— Regional Stakeholder
We’re now in the process of onboarding the school so EcoDrive XR becomes part of their teaching strategy for the upcoming academic year. These regular collaborations are key to building an innovative and practical future for vocational training.
Thank you for sharing this exciting update from Košice-Šaca! It’s inspiring to see how EcoDrive XR is being embraced by educators and how quickly it’s making an impact in the classroom.The feedback from the teachers is incredibly valuable — especially seeing how XR is helping them visualize and teach complex concepts in electric vehicle manufacturing. It’s clear that this kind of immersive learning is not only enhancing understanding but also aligning perfectly with the needs of a green and future-oriented industry.
Looking forward to seeing how the school integrates EcoDrive XR into their curriculum for the next academic year. This is exactly the kind of collaboration that shows the real potential of digital innovation in vocational education.
Keep up the fantastic work!
Thank you Jana for sharing this exciting update!
This is such an inspiring example of how immersive technology can truly transform vocational education. It’s exciting to see how EcoDrive XR is not only making technical concepts more accessible, but also aligning classroom learning with the needs of a greener, future-focused industry.
Kudos to the team and educators involved — this kind of collaboration is exactly what innovation in education should look like!
Looking forward to hearing more updates from the team!
I’m also from Slovakia and I’d love to hear about the opportunities to implement the XR solutions to schools as we also building an XR product (chemistry lab) and have no idea how to reach out to schools. If anyone here is interested, I can provide a demo - feel free to reach out here or on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/avdubr/) - I’d be very happy to hear to your experience
