XR for Business Industries

We are a Trusted Developer for AR/VR and 3D Technologies for Business

ARS develops with the Unity and Unreal Engine platforms for many different XR for business industries. However, our focus is on service areas in AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction), Education/ Training, Specialized Services, Geospatial, and the Medical/ Healthcare fields.

We develop using the Unreal Engine and Unity platforms and are technology consultants for many different industries. Find out more about how XR technologies like AR/VR, 3D web applications, and digital twins are revolutionizing industry services.

Industries

Core Industry Verticals

AEC (Architecture, Engineering, Construction) Industries

Architecture, engineering and construction industry clients use a wide range of AR/VR and 3D technologies. The AEC industry has seen growth in more than just augmented reality and virtual reality applications. ARS also develops 3D renderings, web application walkthroughs and digital twin technologies.

AR/VR and web app technology is rapidly improving how we experience buildings and rooms before they are constructed. Going beyond the latest 360-degree video, photography and sound capture technologies, ARS develops 3D applications with virtual spaces that immerse people in another world.

XR Technology in Architecture

VR in architecture immerses you in the beauty of design. From form, space and aesthetics, you can engage clients with tools to measure space, view sight lines, change options, plus much more. Explore the relationship between spaces and the impact of light on a room at different times of the day or year. Feedback is instantaneous and architecture visualizations allow people to walk through realistic business or residential environments, offering a perspective that photos cannot accomplish.

XR Technology in Construction

For the construction industry, XR presents an array of opportunities. For example, you can view virtual elements on top of the real world (AR). Additionally, you can be fully immersed within designs utilizing virtual reality. In other words, structures can be explored, tested and planned for in detail. With immersive 3D development, you can walk through these environments before anyone steps foot on the construction site. Above all, save time and money by creating a space for stakeholders to engage with real physical locations in advance of construction. This is important, because it reduces risks and eliminates design changes before physical construction begins.

XR Technology in Engineering

Your XR project manager will choose the right project development team to complete the project. ARS chooses the best use case for prototype development and identifies the best platform for development. For instance, native language code, unreal engine, unity are all development platforms we are experienced in. As a result, we will create the framework for final output for you with ARkit, ARTook kit, Wikitude, VUforia, Open CV and/or AR core for iOS and/or Android, Mac or PC. Finally, we will create a user interface for design component.

AR/VR for Education and Training Industries

Many students are visual or interactive learners. This means they need to see or experience a process instead of reading or hearing about them. Consequently, XR technologies help people understand material. Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) add an immersive experience to the learning process. These extended reality (XR) technologies can create immersive worlds where students can learn, visualize, and experience processes.

Education is not just for students. VR developers can create virtual reality training environments that are digital twins of a real life locations. Applications can simulate dangerous situations, or scenarios that are difficult to recreate in real life. Training VR can reduce travel costs, improve safety plans, and shorten the training timeline.

Emerging 3D and VR Technologies for Education

XR for Business Industry: Geospatial

The Geospatial industry uses XR technologies for military and civilian companies to visualize data in different ways. XR technology encompasses more than AR/VR applications. Other 3D visualization are used for city planning, education, 3D GIS mapping, field operations, marketing, resource management planning, digital twins and training. Our geospatial technology partners often require robust network and backend security features for expansive datasets.

Public utilities are becoming more available with precise geographic locations. AR can help visually establish locations in the field., checking for installed improvements, including curbs, utility structures, and paving.

Healthcare/ Medical Industry

Medical professionals need to keep up their skills, especially on surgeries they do not often perform. VR training means surgeons have access to immersive, hands-on training that simulates a real life operating room environment. VR platforms offer portable and available anytime for the surgeon to train.

Machines in the medical field are often expensive and difficult to move around. VR offers a safe and portable alternative to costly machinery. Here is an example of an eye test machine being replaced with VR. Patients can also relax in hospital environments through VR and speeds up the recovery time in physical therapy by helping you train your mind faster.

Other XR for Business Industries

There are many other services that we have experience in, including: Specialized services, Marketing, Design (Product/ Graphic/ Web/ Auto, etc.), Entertainment/ Travel, Industrial, Real Estate, Virtual and Physical Tours, Sales/ E-Commerce, Social and many more.

5 Benefits of XR Technology for Business

Firstly, XR Technology for Business enhances the customer experience. In other words, customers can visualize products and interact with them to get a feel for what it would be like to use them. Secondly, you can Improve productivity with your workers. This can be through VR training or digital information overlays.

Thirdly, you can encourage better collaboration and communication with your team. For example, you can improve safety, efficiencies, and quality control with many XR applications. In addition, you can set up more immersive training applications. In a recent Texas A&M VR study , workers who experienced accidents in a VR environment had their sensory response to warning alarms significantly increase. Finally, XR is rich in new data streams with companies gaining new insights.

How to Guide: XR for Business Technology

Extended Reality, or XR, is the umbrella term for all immersive technologies, including virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR). VR utilizes a device, such as a headset, to fully immerse a user into the real world. All AR and MR technologies blend the real world with a virtual world to create an immersive experience for the user. With MR, you can manipulate the real world with virtual elements.

XR for Business Technology utilizes much of the same development technology from the gaming industry into benefits for companies and their customers.
