QuarkXR and SenseGlove Bring Touch and Feel to Cloud XR

April 21, 2021


QuarkXR and SenseGlove have teamed up to combine the benefits of Cloud XR and Haptics. The two companies are proud to announce a new customer as well in Huawei Netherlands.

Industrial and design applications require a lot of immersion, not only visually (detailed 3D models, photorealistic graphics, etc.), but also in terms of presence and touch. This makes them a perfect application for both Cloud XR and Haptics - two topics that are usually discussed separately in the XR industry. This is about to change today, as QuarkXR and SenseGlove have brought a Cloud XR Haptic solution to the market, powered by the QuarkXR Framework and the SenseGlove Nova - the newest version of haptic force-feedback gloves designed specifically for professional VR training purposes.

The solution is available today, and the partners have successfully completed the first commercial deployment at Huawei Netherlands. It will be available as part of Huawei's 5G showroom at the Dutch headquarters of the company. The setup has been in full operation since last week, and we are very excited to finally share the news!

QuarkXR and SenseGlove have been collaborating for a while and were part of a project at Hubraum (by Deutsche Telekom) to bring Cloud XR to industrial applications for the first time in 2019. See the video below for more details.

With wider availability of Edge and Cloud computing, and the advancements in connectivity made by 5G networks, we are now ready to offer this solution to the mass market.
