• VR/AR

The experience of industrial VR systems (BtoB VR systems utilized in manufacturing, construction, healthcare, education, entertainment, etc.) requires head tracking and motion capture technology using 3D position measurement systems such as optical and magnetic systems, necessitating the attachment of markers or coil sensors to the body. By performing head tracking and motion capture with markerless motion capture (Captury system), the need for sensor attachment is eliminated, allowing for a more flexible VR experience. Captury also enables tracking of hand movements, facial expressions, and tracking in casual clothing. *Captury is a system that allows for real-time markerless motion capture. It requires tracking software, cameras, PCs, etc.*

VIPER is a three-dimensional magnetic position measurement system that utilizes magnetism. The system consists of a source (TX-2) that generates the magnetic field, a sensor (RX-2), and a control unit (SEU) that manages these components, enabling detection in six degrees of freedom. Unlike other systems (optical, ultrasonic, camera-based), the magnetic system provides measurement data in real-time without being affected by physical obstacles (blind spots). In addition to its compact and lightweight body, it achieves the highest accuracy in POLHEMUS's product history and an astonishing sampling rate comparable to high-speed cameras at a low cost. Furthermore, a new function has been added to alleviate magnetic field distortion caused by the presence of metal in the measurement environment, which has been a weak point of magnetic sensors. VIPER proposes operations in a wide range of new fields where the use of magnetic sensors has been challenging until now.

"Safe Master" is a VR system for safety education that allows users to realistically experience the "illusion" of their hands encountering accidents. The "CG hand" is displayed in life-size, matching the user's hand, and utilizes the cross-modal phenomenon, where the perceived hand approaches dangerous areas more closely than expected, resulting in a simulated disaster effect. All necessary equipment is housed in a box-shaped unit, allowing for easy operation with a single button to start and stop without complicated setup. Since the HMD (head-mounted display) is fixed to the unit, there is no hassle of putting on the HMD compared to regular VR systems, ensuring stable visual presentation. The design is based on ergonomics, allowing for a natural working posture during the experience. The height of the eyepiece (HMD) can be adjusted to match the user's height (160 cm or 170 cm). This product is based on the following patented technology: a joint patent with Waseda University and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Environmental & Chemical Engineering Co., Ltd. (Patent No. 4906397). *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
