LAVAL, CANADA; — Virtual Simulations Inc. is pleased to announce the establishment of a new business partnership with Sensics Inc., the panoramic head mounted display company. In this partnership, Virtual Simulation will become a value added reseller (VAR) of Sensics products. Sensics products will be integrated with software components developed by Virtual Simulations to provide complete VR turnkey solutions to its end-clients.

Sensics Inc. latest product, the piSight 150, is a head mounted display capable of displaying panoramic, high-resolution stereoscopic imagery to the user. The piSight delivers a field of view of 150 degrees and a resolution of 3200x1800 pixels per eye, providing large peripheral vision capabilities and high immersion sensations to the user. Developed during nearly a decade of research sponsored by NASA and a major car manufacturer, the piSight uses a patented optical design to seamlessly combine full-color images from two dozen microdisplays into a stunning, panoramic 3D visual experience.

"We are very excited to have Sensics as a business partner as it will open new opportunities to us and push the technical limits of what we can achieve in terms of simulation visual quality and immersion. The capabilities of the piSight are unequalled at this time and allow us, for the first time, to create VR experiences the way VR was meant to be, giving a strong and believable immersion sensation to the user." says Marc Bernatchez, President of Virtual Simulations Inc.

“We are very pleased to welcome Virtual Simulations to our growing list of business partners”, says Lawrence Brown, Ph.D., President of Sensics. “We look forward to combining our HMD expertise with the substantial VR experience brought by the principals of Virtual Simulations towards providing excellent solutions to our customers.”
