In an age where partnerships shape the landscape of innovation, one such partnership is redefining the way we experience immersive XR training and simulation. HGXR has forged a strategic alliance with FARO® Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: FARO), a global leader in 4D digital reality solutions.
HGXR systems seamlessly integrate state-of-the-art FARO digital scanning technology. The integration enables anything from objects and infrastructure to real-life situations and scenarios to be scanned and simulated in photo-real VR as digital twins, offering enhanced training and greater customization potential.
For over 40 years FARO has pioneered bridging the digital and physical worlds with best-in-market laser scanning technology which digitally captures any situation or object using 3D point clouds. Point clouds are essentially a huge collection of tiny individual points plotted in 3D space from which HGXR creates digital twins, virtual photo-real models based on a physical environment.
With digital twins HGXR systems users can visualize and simulate any real object, environment or situation in the virtual space. This is indispensable technology for organizations needing to digitally capture a situation or critical infrastructure for any time review, evaluation and training – such as a crime scene reconstruction, or security planning and process optimization on the factory floor.
Leif Petersen, CEO and Founder of HOLOGATE/HGXR, commented:
Our partnership with FARO is an incredible enhancement to our training and simulation offer. FARO’s expertise in the digital scanning and imaging field directly complements our virtual solutions and enables us to further adapt our XR training and simulation applications to meet our customers’ needs
Christian Schäfers, Regional Manager – Public Safety & Forensics, EMEA at FARO commented:
We are pleased to be working with HGXR in a partnership that capitalizes on the strengths of both organizations. FARO’s high-speed leading digital scanning technology coupled with HGXR’s premium XR training takes their training and simulation solutions to the next level.”
