VNTANA

🚨 **Big News in XR!** 🚨 Reports suggest that Apple may stop producing the Vision Pro headset as early as next month due to reduced demand and production challenges. Originally launched with much fanfare, the $3,499 device aimed to revolutionize XR by blending virtual and augmented reality. However, high costs and limited content offerings have curbed its adoption. This potential pivot reflects the complexity of launching immersive tech at a premium price point. Apple may shift focus toward more affordable models in 2025, signaling a recalibration of its XR strategy. The news also raises broader questions about the future of high-end XR devices and what consumers expect from immersive experiences. At VNTANA, we believe scalability and accessibility are key to driving widespread XR adoption. As the market shifts, so does the opportunity for innovation and collaboration across industries. That's why we have always focused on web based experiences, which can be enjoyed across desktop, mobile and XR headsets. What’s your take on Apple’s decision? Is this the right move for XR? Let’s continue the conversation. https://hubs.li/Q02VXLW60 #XR #AR #VR #Innovation #Apple #VisionPro #TechNews

Thrilled to share that our work with Kohler has been recognized by Unity with the Best Customer Experience Award for the AR Tryout Tool! 🏆 It’s been an incredible journey collaborating with Kohler, Unity to bring their digital and XR strategy to life. To give people more confidence when making design and renovation decision, reducing uncertainty during the process is what this first AR Tryout Tool is aiming at. A great recognition for the 3D & Immersive Experience team we initiated last year! This recognition is a testament to the team’s effort and dedication, and I’m proud to have been part of building something so impactful. The foundational structure which we have built to launch Kohler to the Phygital era are less prevalent in Awards like this, but another special mention to Unity & VNTANA to working closely with us in building this unique infrastructure that will enable more immersive experiences in the future. So... a significant milestone, but only the beginning—excited to continue working with Kohler and our partners to push the boundaries even further! ( And trust me... there is more to come...) Thank you: Romina Uceda Jon F. Proeber Ashley Crowder Ben Conway Kendra Cleveland Nagesh Koritala Amol Jagtap Preet Ahluwalia Malcolm Overend Jason Bond and many other that I forgot!

We love working with all types of manufacturers, from shoe companies to mining equipment. If you design in 3D programs, chances are your existing DAM does not have what you need to easily and securely share and collaborate on 3D. Our co-founder Ashley Crowder had a great time at MINExpo INTERNATIONAL working with our heavy equipment manufacturers. Check out how big some of this equipment is! The 3D models are also out of this world...

How much more could your organization do if every employee got 12 hours back per week?!?! #3dassetmanagement #DAM #CMS #3d

🚀 The team has been having fun exploring Meta's Caddy app! It's incredible how easy it is to instantly upload any 3D CAD file to VNTANA then view the optimized version in Meta Quest. Whether it's for collaboration, training, sales, or more, the possibilities are endless! 🌐🤖 This immersive experience is really transforming how we interact with 3D models in real-time. Can't wait to see where this technology takes us next! #3D #MetaQuest #ImmersiveTech #Collaboration #DigitalTransformation
