The digital combination of real and computer-generated environments, XR is quickly becoming an indispensable tool for enterprise use. According to a report by Astute Analytica, nearly all professionals surveyed believe XR will play a significant role in their businesses over the next five years. The report states that XR technologies allow organizations to deliver immersive experiences, produce new ways of working, and that they drive higher business value through enhanced productivity, employee engagement and collaboration.
“Businesses and schools are starting to incorporate XR headsets with software for everything from onboarding new employees to education-based games and practicing surgical procedures because the immersive experience allows for greater learning and retention. XR technology also saves time and money by minimizing travel,” explains Tristan Aldinger, business development manager for Exertis Almo. “With the addition of the PICO XR headsets, Exertis Almo can now serve integrators as a one-stop-shop for all XR enterprise deployments when packaged with the necessary device management and content software.”
Aldinger continues, “We look forward to giving E4 Experience attendees the ability to learn more about XR technology and to try out the PICO headsets with some fun education-based activities and relaxing mental health and meditation applications.”
According to Amir Khorram, GM, PICO North America, “We’re excited to partner with Exertis Almo. Their strong relationships with the Pro AV integration community, in-house XR experts, device management tools, and established events like the E4 Experience make them the ideal partner for providing integrators with the best chance for success and profitability with this technology.”
