What is Extended Reality?

Extended Reality (XR) is an umbrella term for immersive technologies such as augmented, virtual, and mixed reality technologies (AR, VR and MR).

Along with emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence and eye tracking, XR is the next training revolution.

With remote collaboration, adaptive content, and learner analytics, our XR training solutions provide improved learning outcomes with reduced operational costs.

Market evidence

On the back of a growing demand for workforce upskilling, as evidenced by World Economic Forum’s prediction of 1 billion people requiring to be re-skilled by 2030, the global demand for training modules / curriculums is likely to witness a quantum leap.
