What you'll need depends on how you connect to your Mursion session
How are you connecting to Mursion?
Mursion sessions can happen on a few different video conferencing platforms. Your organization will decide which of these platforms to use, as a learner, you cannot select which platform you want to use to connect to Mursion.

Mursion's Windows Application - System Requirements
Note on usage: Our windows application is in use by a few select customers and is not available to all users. For the most part, learners will connect via Mursion Magic, Zoom, or Google Meet.
If you are a Self-Service Client, these settings would apply to your Sim team's hardware.
Because the Mursion application is a graphics-based software, it is imperative to use a computer with a dedicated graphics card for an optimal experience. If your system is producing a poor-quality experience, please consider upgrading your hardware to meet our recommended specifications.
Note that you cannot connect to a simulation via Mursion's Windows Application if you are using a VPN.

Peripherals
Webcam
A webcam is used to allow the avatar to see you (the learner) during a simulation. If using a laptop, you may use the built-in webcam.
- Minimum resolution: 640x480
Speakers & Microphone
To participate in the simulation, a speaker and microphone must be used. Please consider the following when determining your audio setup:
- Ensure that your microphone will only pick up your voice. If you expect a lot of background noise, use a headset or wireless microphone.
- Likewise, make sure you can clearly hear the avatars. Laptop or TV speakers may be used, but if in a noisy environment, you may wish to use a headset.
- Webcams with a built-in microphone are compatible - select the same device for both webcam and mic in the Mursion software.
- Any standard USB headset microphone (while not required) is most compatible with the software.
