In the early 2000s, the Virtual Reality tools made their way into the market, showing the weak sides of a then still immature technology. After years of development, however, these techniques have evolved significantly. Today, thanks to them, it is finally possible to develop solutions that were unthinkable until recently. It is in this context that RAIT88 has cultivated internally, over time, the know-how of interactive 3D software development systems.
The Virtual Reality of RAIT88
“Our team,” he tells Alessio Calabrò, CEO of RAIT88 – consists of more than a dozen engineers, creatives and designers all highly motivated and aware that the aid of virtual reality will change the world. Using it in the fields of Defense, Medicine and Education will bring nothing short of incredible benefits. We think of Virtual Reality tools that make it possible to accelerate physician training, improve diagnosis, and support patient care, including through remote control systems to reduce physicians’ physical interaction with infected patients. Technologies related to Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are resources of extreme interest to the military. While the former enables realistic simulations by lowering training and exercise costs without resorting to “live ammunition,” the latter may provide a vital tactical advantage on the battlefield “.
The Roman company, founded in 1988: “adopts a visionary project with a combination of Research, Innovation and Training, developing and identifying new models and strategies to strengthen the link between Institutions, Start-ups and Multinationals.” These are the words of Francesco Maschio, General Manager of RAIT88; which continues: “the primary goal will be to provide customer-oriented Ar-Vr solutions, maximizing the virtualization of complex technological systems, fostering their exploration and improving the understanding of operational issues. Solutions that provide support and added value, not only for the decision maker but also for maintenance and operational training activities; Of local and remote technical support for maintenance of complex systems and assembly of parts in production lines. Obviously with a careful look at saving policies“.
Applications of Virtual and Augmented Reality.
It is not just about improving what already exists but about fueling innovation in the entire industry. “We don’t want to limit ourselves,” interjects Andrea Ettorre, Virtual Reality Division manager – to take advantage of virtual and augmented reality technologies on the market. We believe we can make a difference by focusing a good portion of our efforts on R&D of proprietary hardware and software technologies that enable new approaches. Computer vision and perception algorithms ; specific shaders for Realtime 3D rendering; Intelligent interfaces; AI and Machine Learning to support the system architecture and customization of Visors. These are just some of the tools that will enable us to develop new cutting-edge solutions to outline a new future.”
The multiple applications of these technologies, make them a real innovative vanguard. These can be juxtaposed with various fields, such as remote technical assistance, E-learning, design and previsualization, as well as simulation of multiple scenarios. The scope of application of Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality guaranteed by. RAIT88, ranges from Military application, to Health and Aerospace.
