Due to its inherently isolating nature, remote work has become an essential practice amid the coronavirus pandemic, especially for office settings. However, “work from home” schemes can be a daunting task to maintain for industrial sites. In response to this situation, VIRNECT, a South Korean company, launched its second-generation augmented reality (AR)-based solutions for remote working on industrial sites.
Its AR solution 2.0 consists of VIRNECT Remote, Make, View, and Workstation, all of which increase productivity and safety in industrial sites.
Led by VIRNECT CEO Ha Tae-jin, the company specializes in extensive industrial AR and digital twin technologies. The company recently attracted 9 billion won ($7.7 million) worth of investment in a Series A funding round.
“The upgraded VIRNECT’s AR Solution 2.0 not only has the addition of various features but also focuses on making AR solutions easier for customers to use in their workplaces. We hope that this would be great news to customers looking forward to a new version.”
-Ha Tae-jin, VERNICT CEO
