Abstract

The teaching of handling proceedings is often very difficult especially if these are complex. In such cases the sequence of images representing the proceeding can be of great help. This is also true for the teaching of the handling procedures in the event of fire and similar disasters. The main problem in this case is a lack of appropriate images, since these situations are relatively rare. To solve this problem, the SIN application is presented, enabling the instructor to generate the sequence of realistic images which demonstrate the handling procedures in different stages in a fast and easy way.
