ENGAGE XR to collaborate with Lenovo
28 September 2022
Lenovo confirmed as ENGAGE Link launch
partner
Global Technology Company, Lenovo™ has announced the launch of a new
all-in-one virtual reality (VR) headset engineered for enterprise
customers called The Lenovo ThinkReality VRX. As part of the
launch, Lenovo also confirmed it is collaborating with ENGAGE XR to
help build its own Lenovo Metaverse space utilizing the ENGAGE
platform.
ENGAGE XR will help build and offer a Lenovo presence within the
Metaverse using ENGAGE Link. ENGAGE Link is
ENGAGE's enterprise-focused metaverse set to launch later
this year. Lenovo is one of the five confirmed launch partners
for ENGAGE Link. The others announced so far include HTC and
The Virtual Human Interaction Lab at Stanford University. The Group
has also announced a multi-national professional services firm and a
leading publisher and education company as launch partners and would
expect to provide further details closer to the release date of
ENGAGE Link.
The Lenovo space within ENGAGE Link will be an 'always on' virtual
home for Lenovo to showcase its products and solutions as well as
being a location to meet and collaborate with partners and customers
directly.
The ENGAGE Link platform will allow clients to have publicly
accessible, always-on, persistent locations to advertise their
business and services directly to the general public and to
potential clients. Clients can build their own unique Metaverse
services for private company use or make them available to the wider
world on ENGAGE Link, or via their own website, using our deep links
system. This enables ENGAGE customers the ability to build new
business models and revenue streams.
The Lenovo ThinkReality VRX is built to be the VR solution for
workers everywhere. From improving efficiency in employee
training and virtual collaboration to expanding design and
engineering tasks in 3D, XR technologies are becoming ever more
important for businesses especially in enabling hybrid workers to do
more. The headsets will be available in select markets
worldwide starting in early 2023. The price for the enterprise
VR solution will be disclosed upon availability.
David Whelan, CEO, ENGAGE XR said: "The launch of The Lenovo
ThinkReality VRX shows the growing anticipation that more and more
work will be done in the Metaverse. While other technology companies
have focused on the social and entertainment opportunities, Lenovo
has identified the huge benefits for enterprises utilizing the
metaverse to engage with employees, customers and suppliers around
the world. We are delighted that they have chosen ENGAGE to build
their presence within the Metaverse."
Vishal Shah, GM of XR and Metaverse, Lenovo, said: "We engineered the Lenovo ThinkReality VRX to be the VR solution of choice for training and collaborating in immersive 3D. Collaborating with ENGAGE demonstrates the power of these use cases and the ability of ThinkReality to help customers scale into Enterprise Metaverse."
