Augmented and Mixed Reality Collaboration — Remote, Refined and in Real Time

Ottawa-based Arvizio is on a mission to deliver the next generation of mixed reality team collaboration and visualization technology, remotely and in real time, to a wide range of markets including engineering, construction, manufacturing, energy, mining, IT infrastructure and more. Their platform has a variety of capabilities to allow users to share 3D models on multiple types of headsets and mobile devices, as well as allowing documents, images and other project data to be included in the AR/MR experience without the development of custom application software.

Through an ENCQOR 5G project, Arvizio focused on testing and demonstrating the use of 5G wireless technology and edge computing for AR/MR collaboration. The high network bandwidth and low latency that is delivered through 5G technology was a requirement that Arvizio looked for to allow them to run next generation MR applications. The project provided the company access to a live 5G test environment for them to test and validate their solution, create a proven test reference, demonstrate the advantages of their solution to potential customers and strategic partners, and accelerate the time to market for the solution.

The project allowed Arvizio to build into their mobile application many of the features that previously could only be offered on a desktop version, making the software more attractive to many types of users.

“When we founded Arvizio, our goal was to offer the industry’s first mixed and augmented reality platform for real-time visualization and collaboration with large scale 3D models used in engineering, advanced manufacturing, energy and other industry verticals,” says Alex Berlin, President and COO of Arvizio. “It’s exciting to see this vision advance and deliver leading edge technology to companies around the world. The next phase will be even more exciting, as the worlds of AR, AI, IoT and 5G begin to align for a whole new phase in the digital transformation of industry.”

Arvizio is continuing to test and expand their product and solution offering, increase their customer base and grow recurring revenue. Recently, the company secured large customers, and is looking to expand their team to support this growth and bring their solution to a range of industries.
