On April 29, K3AI, the first domestic developer of XR (Extended Reality) middleware solutions, announced that it has secured an additional contract for XR simulator development from a global conglomerate.
This new order is significant as it represents a follow-up contract from an existing client, who has once again recognized K3AI's technological capabilities. K3AI anticipates that demand for additional XR simulators could arise each time the client introduces new facilities in the future, and therefore expects continued momentum in securing new orders.
Under the terms of the contract, K3AI will begin developing XR simulators for use in the secondary battery industry. These simulators provide the entire manufacturing process as a virtual reality training program, which not only enhances worker proficiency and safety but also increases on-site productivity by reducing loss rates.
A K3AI representative stated, "The supplied XR simulators are intended to efficiently train employees when new equipment is introduced. Since training can be conducted simultaneously with equipment installation, the client was highly satisfied as it reduced both costs and time, which led to this follow-up order."
He continued, "K3AI continues to secure successful references in various fields such as industry, cultural tourism, and education, thanks to its unrivaled XR technology. Our proprietary XR content exhibition hall in Malaysia is also operating smoothly. Based on our differentiated technological capabilities, we have received multiple proposals for XR content exhibition hall projects from local companies in Mongolia and the Philippines." He added, "We are now in the final stages of concrete negotiations regarding investment scale and equity ratio for the establishment of a joint venture (JV)."
K3AI is the first company in Korea to commercialize industrial XR solutions, and with over 20 years of research and development experience, it has a proven track record of successful projects across various industries. Leveraging this competitive edge, the company is highly regarded not only for securing new clients but also for its potential to expand into new industrial sectors.
