Along with the debut of the platform, Medical Realities, the company
behind the world's first live 360° operation on a cancer patient at the
Royal London Hospital, has adopted Jaunt's technology in the reinvention
of its groundbreaking surgical training app, and vTime, the world's
sociable network in VR, is also working with Jaunt's XR Platform to
develop co-watching experiences within immersive video.
"The evolution of the Medical Realities app has been an important part
of the overall expansion of our brand," said Steve Dann Medical
Realities CEO. "Working with Jaunt has allowed us to enhance our
customer experience and expand our distribution across platforms. We are
very excited about the opportunities before us."
Clemens Wangerin, Managing Director at vTime added, "In Jaunt, with
their immersive technology, we've found the perfect partner to help us
towards our vision of delivering the very best sociable experiences for
our users to enjoy with friends, family and others, anywhere in the
world. Jaunt has huge credibility in immersive technology and is an
obvious choice for this next stage of innovation for us."
The Jaunt XR Platform provides a highly scalable solution for the
distribution of all immersive content, including virtual reality video,
interactive VR, branched storytelling narratives, augmented reality and
mixed reality. The XR Platform allows customers to seamlessly and
simultaneously publish immersive content across all 360 social platforms
including Facebook 360, YouTube (News - Alert) 360 and Twitter, native iOS and Android
mobile apps, and all VR platforms and headsets. The new Jaunt XR
Platform also includes an end-to-end Media Manager pupose build for
immersive content, a publishing solution that supports 28 languages, and
an Intelligence Suite that provides data and analytics specific to
immersive content. The XR Platform sits on a scalable cloud-based
infrastructure and provides globally localized solutions in a modular
way.
"The next generation of digital media is immersive and media companies
and brands are embracing this evolution. The challenge for these
companies to meet the demand of the market has been in the ability to
distribute in their own channels," said Jaunt CEO George Kliavkoff.
"Jaunt has deep experience with immersive media and we are unique in
being a cross-platform provider that has perfected the creation and
distribution of immersive content. Now we've decided to bring these
tools to market to help our partners with scalable immersive solutions."
In addition to providing partners with the XR Platform for the
distribution of immersive content, the company just released their first
six degrees of freedom (6DoF) mixed-reality experience, Free the Night,
in partnership with Microsoft (News - Alert) for Windows Mixed Reality, and was
nominated for two Emmy Awards, winning its first Emmy Award for the
documentary film Collisions, directed by Lynette Wallworth. Jaunt
Studios has produced more than 300 pieces of immersive content and has
aggregated the largest library of immersive content that is licensed to
distributors throughout the globe.
The Jaunt XR Platform is available now and will be one of the immersive
technology company's showcase pieces at CES 2018. For more details on
