Mixed Reality.
Enabling full scale in context design collaboration
Mixed Reality Devices Supported
Our Extended Reality (XR) experiences support the following Mixed Reality headsets:
- Microsoft HoloLens
- Microsoft HoloLens 2
- Windows Mixed Reality Immersive Headsets (including Lenovo Explorer & Samsung Odyssey)
Connect and collaborate in real-time
Using Mixed Reality, you can join multi-user sessions to collaborate with your engineering team in real-time, regardless of location or choice of device. By working together in XR, you can securely and remotely use intuitive XR tools for more effective decision making and to improve efficiency.
We believe that collaboration is a key factor towards accelerating development and getting to market faster, whilst eliminating the need for physical meetings, protecting the environment, and reducing cost and time and transport costs.
Supporting large data using Microsoft Azure Remote Rendering for HoloLens 2
The Visualization Pipeline supports Azure Remote Rendering (ARR) for HoloLens 2 Mixed Reality devices. ARR offloads the rendering process to a separate server to reducing the processing load on your device, enabling you to view larger datasets in your device with excellent graphics quality and high performance.
As a member of the Microsoft Mixed Reality Partner Program (MRPP), we have worked closely with Microsoft to ensure the Azure platform seamlessly integrates with our pipeline and experiences, to remove the constraints imposed by on-device rendering of large datasets in high quality.
Extended Reality (XR) - Why Now?
Until now, businesses engaged in ‘design and manufacturing’ have relied on 3D product models or 2D drawings to gain the understanding and insight needed to take important commercial and operational decisions.
However, augmented, mixed, and virtual reality technologies - known collectively as Extended Reality or XR – are now providing powerful new ways of interacting with 3D product designs.
