Abstract
This research presents a novel 3D fire escape educational system for children, addressing the urgent need for more engaging and interactive fire safety training methods. Traditional approaches to fire safety education fall short in capturing the attention of primary and middle school students, who are crucial yet less responsive audiences for such critical knowledge. Leveraging 3D modeling and human-computer interaction technologies, our system offers an immersive learning experience that allows children to actively participate in self-rescue drills. Through autonomous navigation within a simulated environment, learners are empowered to make decisions during fire scenarios, including choosing escape routes or attempting fire extinguishment based on situational prompts. This hands-on approach not only aims to enhance the understanding of fire safety principles but also to improve the learners' ability to react appropriately in real-life emergencies. The system encompasses environmental simulations for realistic scenarios, interactive tasks tailored to provoke thoughtful responses, and educational content including videos and quizzes to consolidate the learned principles. Initial evaluations indicate that this interactive system significantly improves engagement and the acquisition of self-rescue skills among young learners, marking a significant advancement in fire safety education.
