The Varjo XR-3
Varjo's VR headsets are becoming increasingly popular within professional businesses and organisations, partly due to their human-eye resolution. In this blog, we present several real-life use cases from companies that utilise the Varjo XR-3 headset on a daily basis
Training & Simulation
The future of pilot training with LVC & Mixed Reality
The Finnish Air Force, Varjo, Patria and Bohemia Interactive Simulations have collaborated on a groundbreaking Live-Virtual-Constructive (LVC) training solution. This innovative project demonstrates how a virtual simulation can enhance physical exercises and contribute to the further development of new training programmes
Tenstar: learning to safely operate heavy machinery in virtual reality
By connecting Tenstar's machine simulators to Varjo's virtual reality headsets, users can safely practice operating heavy machinery in demanding and lifelike situations. Since the simulation can be performed entirely virtually, it is no longer location and cost-dependent
FlightSafety & Varjo: Mixed reality is a breakthrough for aviation training
Varjo and FlightSafety International have collaborated to present a mixed reality flight trainer. Users can see the real flight controls, all instrument panels and their own hands while flying in a photorealistic virtual environment. Particularly well-developed here are the 'mixed reality' applications (the combination of the real world and virtual world)
Design & Development
Kia: driving the future with XR collaboration in car design
Kia Motors has always been a market leader when it comes to implementing new and innovative technology in their design process. Now that Varjo is supported by Autodesk VRED, Kia's visualisation process can be converted into a fully photorealistic mixed reality experience. Kia uses the Varjo XR-3 for model evaluation, and due to the virtual application, is no longer dependent on locations
Volvo: the world's first mixed reality test drive
Volvo Cars and Varjo are literally driving the future by creating the world's first mixed reality approach for evaluating prototypes, designs and active safety technologies. For the first time ever, Volvo Cars and Varjo have made it possible to drive a real car while wearing a mixed reality headset, seamlessly adding virtual elements that appear real
Siemens: VR reduces the design process from days and hours to minutes
Siemens has moved a part of product development entirely to the online world. With the human-eye resolution of the Varjo headsets, designers can get on with design and development from their own workplace, and products are easy to share without being physically together
Varjo & Laerdal: Bringing immersive healthcare training to life
Laerdal is a world leader in patient simulation. The company has 1,500 employees in 24 countries developing products and programmes to help improve patient outcomes and survival. Laerdal's mission is ambitious: to help save an additional million lives each year by 2030. To this end, Laerdal is collaborating with Varjo with the aim of developing the next generation of immersive, effective mixed reality training for medical scenarios
VR in surgery: delivering the reliability surgeons need for training
Training in virtual reality is the future. Surgeons from Osgenic also use the virtual reality applications to train surgeons in complex procedures. For these applications, resolution and detail are important. For this reason, they have chosen to use the Varjo headsets with human-eye resolution
