FAQ

General questions
What is AR and VR?
Augmented reality (AR) presents digital information, objects, or media in the real world through a mobile device or headset. These elements can appear as a flat graphical overlay or can behave as a seemingly real ‘3D’ object.

Virtual reality (VR) immerses users in a fully digital environment through a headset or surrounding display. This environment can be computer-generated or filmed in 360-degree video.

What is the difference between Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality?

Virtual reality (VR) is a complete immersion in a digital environment, whereas, in augmented reality (AR), virtual information is overlaid on the real world.

What is MR?

Mixed reality is the merging of real and virtual worlds to produce new environments and visualizations, where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real-time.

What is XR?

Extended reality (XR), is a newly added term to the dictionary of the technical words. XR refers to all real-and-virtual combined environments and human-machine interactions generated by computer technology and wearables. Extended Reality includes all its descriptive forms like the Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality (MR).

Which industries use AR and VR? And how?

AR and VR technology is used in many industries like the automobile, retail, furniture, healthcare, defence, real estate, hospitality, etc – to provide training, immersive experiences, walkthroughs, digital stores and many more uses.

What is the future of virtual and augmented reality?

According to a 2016 Goldman Sachs report on AR/VR, immersive technology is poised to enjoy an 80 billion dollar market share ($35 billion in software and $45 billion in hardware) by 2025. Experts are confident that, as faster processors, better software, and even more powerful cameras are developed, the scope for using applications that support virtual and extended reality will increase significantly when compared with today in 2020.

What is the return on investments in virtual reality and augmented reality solutions or platforms?

Immersive technology is being adopted by multiple industries at an accelerated rate, for specific use cases. According to the report, AR/VR for enterprise solutions by Deloitte, AR and VR technology has continued to prove its worth at reducing risks and costs and increasing efficiency rates by at least 25%. Thus, investing in immersive solutions and platforms is highly beneficial for your company.

What kind of simulation training programs does Xarpie Labs build?

Xarpie Labs’ simulation training programs are categorized into two broad segments:-
– Precision Simulation: Marksman training (for defence and competitive sport) & healthcare-related training simulation.
– L&D Solutions: Safety training and assessment programs, sales training & employee onboarding solutions.

What are the benefits of using simulations for training and skilling purposes?

Some of the major advantages of using simulations for training purposes are:-
– 3x content retention by the trainee,
– training cost reduction,
– minimized dependency on human instructors
– advanced training for accuracy and precision,
– avoiding risks of danger and loss of life,
– significant improvement in individual KPIs.

Are there lasting side effects with the use of VR headsets?

No, there are no known lasting effects within the advised duration of using VR headsets. However, extensive or prolonged usage could lead to temporary dizziness or minor headaches every now and then due to the rapid changes in the simulated environment. Depending on use cases, experience may be designed for a sitting posture as opposed to free movement VR.

What value does simulation training bring to your organization?

Virtual simulation training is a very cost-effective method of training new entrants. It ensures increased understanding of a job role and further, results in increased productivity for the workforce. Training using interactive and immersive simulations has a lasting impact on a trainee’s learning curve, usually effecting up to 2x more retention when compared to a typical classroom learning set up.

How do high accuracy simulations help L&D, HSE and Healthcare verticals across industries?

Xarpie Labs creates immersive, interactive visualization, and simulation platforms for precision training. Our company, with its strong background in engineering and design, builds virtual training & simulation solutions for overwhelmed healthcare systems, hazmat and process industries. Simulation training has a high socio-economic impact where VR and AR have proved to:

– increase learning retention,
– improve response time,
– aid learning recall,
– inculcate correct responses to scenarios,
– overcome language barrier, using multilingual audio prompts.
