Aerospace software provider PACE today announced that its parent company TXT e-solutions is participating in Microsoft’s Mixed Reality Partner Program (MRPP). TXT joined the prestigious program on the strengths of their mixed reality implementations and their three-decade track record of leveraging new and emerging technologies for the aerospace and aviation industries.
TXT is advancing the adoption of mixed reality technology and Microsoft’s HoloLens headsets both for extending the capabilities of existing products and for developing brand-new software solutions and services in three key areas:
"We’ve been implementing virtual and augmented reality capabilities in our training and simulation software for a long time, but the availability of mixed reality devices such as Microsoft HoloLens that are completely untethered and displays holograms in your field of view, opens up a whole new world of industrial applications for us to explore," says Michele Sesana, Mixed Reality and Digital Innovation Manager at TXT. "We are privileged to embark on this journey with the support of the Microsoft engineering team, sharing in their know-how and pioneering spirit."
"We’re delighted to have TXT e-solutions join the Mixed Reality Partner Program. TXT’s approach of extending their existing solutions and creating targeted solutions will help aerospace and aviation customers fast-track their journey to industry 4.0 while also driving meaningful cost savings and operational efficiencies," says Leila Martine, Product Marketing Director, Commercial Mixed Reality at Microsoft.
