GIGXR was formed in 2019 by an expert team of educators, nursing specialists, 3D designers, technologists, and futurists to address the shortcomings of traditional 2D curricula with cutting-edge immersive teaching and training solutions.
Our mixed reality platform and applications, which blend physical and digital elements to enable ultra-realistic and collaborative 3D learning environments built for hybrid and remote classes, include over four years of R&D, with solutions that are backed by extensive peer-reviewed research. We’ve earned the confidence of Elsevier, Microsoft, the United States Department of Defense, and even the National Health Service to foster a critical ecosystem of institutions, content providers, and device manufacturers who are at the forefront of mixed reality teaching and training.
Touted as one of the few XR companies that seeks out and meets a real need in the market, we now have a global roster of leading educational institutions using our flagship applications, HoloPatient and HoloHuman, and are continuously developing new solutions that powerfully impact the way the world uses mixed reality solutions for enhanced learning outcomes.
