To promote virtual reality in educational institutes, iQ3Connect Inc. has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with VIT, Pune. The main objective of the MOU is to provide an online AR-VR enabled technological platform for students and faculty. This will facilitate learning the engineering curriculum in an exciting collaborative way. Both organizations believe that this technology can help students develop an appreciation for industrial problems and the skills necessary for solving them.

Vishwakarma Institute Of Technology, Pune (VIT) is one of the top education institutions in India. Their vision is to develop competent engineers equipped with superior technological skills. By providing the necessary technological infrastructure and strong cooperative curriculum, such as achieved with the iQ3Connect Immersive Collaboration Platform, VIT hopes to achieve this vision.

The iQ3Connect Immersive Collaboration Platform is a web-based, scalable, cost-effective solution for real-time collaboration with complex 3D models. We believe that this is a great leap forward in practical education. We would like to thank the entire VIT management team for their vision and support in promoting virtual reality in educational institutes.

iQ3Connect is excited to be among the ten winners of the LG NOVA Mission for the Future global challenge and one of the two winners in the Metaverse category.

Mission for the Future is a competition by LG NOVA to identify new technologies, concepts and business ideas that will push the envelope of a technologically advanced lifestyle for the good of people, communities and the planet. As the Metaverse will bring greater capabilities that will change how we engage across the digital space in the future, LG is looking to broaden its role and explore new services and applications for enterprises that leverage the capabilities of the Metaverse. 

The finalists were selected from an initial pool of approximately 1,300 applicants. We secured the top spot after working closely with the LG NOVA and LG Electronics teams over a nine-month period to enhance and validate our business plan and technology. iQ3Connect’s win in this global challenge is a testament to our mission to leverage XR and web-based technologies to help enterprises thrive in an era of hybrid work environments, with a specific focus on immersive (XR) training and real-time collaboration solutions. We look forward to a continued partnership with LG NOVA, which will enable us to pursue multiple paths to deliver new services and solutions that will help todays enterprises move forward faster into the future.
