AZ Simulation Network Presentation
3D virtual environments can aid in the visualization of data in a way that could introduce insights and new perspectives that are not as easily gained through 2D representations alone.
John “Pathfinder” Lester Joins Acadicus Team
“In this study, there were no differences in the accuracy of performance while learning the steps to prepare for airway intubation between inexperienced learners who used VR technology and experienced senior fellows.”

Mind Mapping and Spreadsheets in VR
3D virtual environments can aid in the visualization of data in a way that could introduce insights and new perspectives that are not as easily gained through 2D representations alone.
Photorealistic Avatars – Without Face Tracking
The new Codec Avatars don’t require dedicated eye and mouth cameras, instead using a neural network to use eye-tracking data and microphone audio to infer the user’s facial expression.
