Pelican training is a team-based simulation that allows a group of users to experience what it may be like to cruise through the galaxy in one of the most iconic vehicles in the Halo Franchise. This simulation uses a combination of real-world haptics, custom hardware, and an underlying Unity game to create an immersive experience. In the simulation, players are able to select a random station that will correlate to predetermined roles (such as engineer, navigator, and pilot.) Each player in these roles will have responsibilities and tasks that will help the team in completing their mission of getting back home safely.
