Virtual reality (VR) brings the ultimate level of real-time immersive presence to what can be otherwise a mundane experience. It brings the field into the boardroom and home office!
Business cases for the use of enterprise VR are endless across industries: training, collaboration, as well as live streaming for conferencing and site inspections. Imagine streaming high definition VR video feeds from a 360-degree camera installed far away on an oil rig, deep down in a mine, a large industrial site, a port or an amazing cultural experience. VR increases effectiveness, engagement, performance, reduces travel needs and environmental costs and creates collaboration which was previously not possible.
Tackling barriers to adoption
So, what’s blocking accelerated adoption? Firstly, VR has not, up to now, been a scalable technology in terms of adoption and deployment. Secondly, it is pushing connectivity limits as there is often no reliable, interference-free connectivity in the field of action that you want to stream the video.
VR increases effectiveness, engagement, performance, reduces travel needs and environmental costs and creates collaboration which was previously not possible.
This has been fixed by combining VRtuoso and Athonet. VRtuoso created the first true scalable turnkey VR platform for enterprises with currently over one million immersive business users. By combining it with Athonet’s instant private 5G network solutions, users can spin up reliable, interference-free coverage rapidly in the field. As simple as Wi-Fi but scaling from small sites to many square miles.
The VR camera can now provide a secure, reliable, jitter free VR video and image feeds. Viewers on the other side of world can now feel the passion from the centre of the action!
