EON Icube is the Perfect Marketing Tool for EnCore Aerospace

The EON team recently hosted EnCore Aerospace, a company that specializes in the design, manufacture, tooling and certification of floor to floor interiors for aerospace for an immersive aircraft interior design exploration of a B737 aircraft. By using our interactive display solution, the EON Icube, EnCore Aerospace was able to visually immerse the design team and potential client in an interactive tour of their design.

“Using the Icube at EON Reality was a great marketing tool for EnCore Aerospace.  As we were presenting a “New Look Interior” for a B737 aircraft to one of our customers, there could not have been a better way to show the fit, form and function of each of our components. Our customer actually felt like they were inside their aircraft. In our business it’s very important to show space and how it’s utilized inside an aircraft and with the Icube’s 3D projection you get that perception. In addition with the integration of the software EON use, we are able to make changes on the fly which is another great advantage for the customer,” said Stan Fisher, VP of Sales and Marketing, EnCore Aerospace.

Hone your Interview Skills with the Virtual Job Interview Simulator

Sure, there are many ways you can prepare for a job interview.. but why not take it to the next level by practicing in front of a virtual interview panel?

The Association Promouvoir la Réalité Virtuelle (Interactive Digital Center in Clermont Ferrand, France), together with Athalia, an HR training and consulting agency, recently introduced a virtual job interview simulator in which real candidates face a virtual jury made of remotely controlled avatars which ask questions and interact with the candidates based on their answers.  The candidate is placed within an immersive Icube, surrounded by stereoscopic 3D projection on three walls and the floor, in front of a scale 1:1 jury.

“This facility is far more interesting than just a PC screen, because it generates emotional feelings and responses from the candidate,” said Laurent Baleydier, Director of APRV. “Every head movement is tracked by 9 cameras and computers calculate the right point of view every hundredth of a second, this creating a highly realistic environment.  The result is a sense of realism, and job seekers who have tested the Icube were really amazed.”

For Bertrand Tabellion, Director of Athalia, the immersive 3D simulator offers many benefits. “All candidates are evaluated under the exact same conditions: it is a fair system by definition. Moreover, instead of mobilizing many people in the jury, we need one single operator only to control their reactions.”

The system is in fact controlled remotely using a touch pad that offers the full range of emotions and a series of predefined questions. “From time to time, we need to intervene physically to re-launch the interview process, because nothing can replace the recruiter’s sense of repartee! Most of the simulation is automated, and we will soon offer new versions with enhanced interactivity,” continued Mr. Tabellion.

Introducing the EON Icube Mobile: All the benefits of the EON Icube.. at a fraction of the cost!

EON Reality is excited to announce the official release of the new EON Icube Mobile, a portable multi-sided immersive environment in which participants are completely surrounded by virtual imagery and sound. It offers an extremely user-friendly interface – from hardware setup to software deployment. This high impact 3D immersion solution benefits many different markets such as energy, aerospace, healthcare, AEC, education, and entertainment.

The hardware construction truss frame is in a lightweight sturdy aluminum material that is easy to set up and it comes with a reusable shipping container for easy transport. It is a front projected system consisting of 120” Diagonal Size Screens with 4:3 aspect ratios. Ceiling height required is 9 feet (2.7 m) and display foot print required is 10 x 10 feet (3 x 3 m). The system cost starts at less than 30% compared to traditional Icube cost.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“For the first time ever we can offer a fully immersive motion tracked interactive 3D experience at about 1/3 of the cost compared to traditional Icubes while at the same time taking up roughly 1/5th of the floor space and fitting within a 9 foot ceiling height. This combination will allow full immersion to be used in areas and applications that we have never reached before,” said Mats W. Johansson, President, EON Reality, Inc.

EON Icube software utilizes high-end active stereo projectors, with stereoscopic glasses and motion tracking position trackers and allows users to be completely immersed in a virtual world. 3D objects float in space with high quality graphics and can be manipulated by users in real-time.

Motion trackers are implemented to monitor the user’s position and orientation and are used to calculate a stereoscopic perspective view. This allows the user to freely move into and around floating objects. Peripheral devices, such as wands and optional gesture gloves, are integrated into the system. EON Icube software has the ability to rapidly deploy 3D interactive virtual simulations using a series of built-in classes of objects, drivers, and a large library of 3D models, textures, and easy to use built- in functionalities.

The EON Icube Mobile can be used as a single-user or multi-user experience with the EON Coliseum Icube option. The remote collaboration system option is ideal for safety and technical training, architecture, and construction purposes.

EON Reality Partners with CogniSens Athletics for Virtual Training Solutions for Athletes

IRVINE, Calif., January 4, 2012 – EON Reality, the world’s leading interactive 3D software provider, has partnered up with CogniSens Athletics to form cognitive training solutions for sports.  The solution, the NeuroTracker, improves athletic performance by increasing player situational awareness and improving action response time during gameplay.  The training starts off with basic multiple object tracking and progresses to full game like simulations.

NeuroTracker is an innovative perceptual-cognitive training system developed by CogniSens Athletics and delivered through EON Reality’s platforms. The technologies are supported by Dr. Jocelyn Faubert, a world leading neurophysicist.  NeuroTracker training improves an athlete’s perceptual-cognitive ability, allowing them to spread attention, deal with rapid optic flow, and process biological motion – all skills required of an elite athlete.

Current users of the NeuroTracker are New England Patriots, Oregon Football, Vancouver Canucks, and Manchester United among others.

“At the elite levels, athletes are on the same playing field with respect to their physical abilities.  What separates the average athlete from the good athlete, and the good athlete from the great athlete, is the mental game- both in preparation and reaction.  Cognitive training helps the athlete recognize what the opponent is doing, and to be one step ahead.  Simulation allows the athlete to not only prepare better, but accelerate experience. These technologies will change how teams develop their athletes and how athletes prepare for competition. ” said Brendan Reilly, Director of EON Sports.

Training the brain, adding motor skills, and graduating to a fully-immersive virtual environment is quickly becoming the future of high-level sport science.
