HP Partnership Expands Advanced VR Training
In a recently published case study, immersive media agency Yondr partnered with webinar platform Clickmeeting to show companies some specific examples of how they could leverage immersive content in a variety of practical scenarios. In the end, they found that many still perceived it primarily as a gaming and entertainment experience. What is needed, according to PIXO VR’s CEO, Sean Hurwitz, is a viable path for integrating those solutions within organizations and their training programs. This is where he hopes their recently announced partnership with HP will lead.
HP is one of the companies that have been steadily increasing its focus on VR hardware products over the course of the past few years. In addition to producing a Windows Mixed Reality Headset, it markets a tetherless VR Backpack and has now developed a new HP Z series of PCs designed specifically for VR. These machines features impressive computing power that allows for high frame rates, comfort, and the freedom of motion required for the complex and graphics-rich scenarios offered by PIXO VR.
