InfiVR.com

Please describe your company and your position there.

I was working with NSE IT, National Stock Exchange as System Analyst.

For what projects/services did your company hire InfiVR.com, and what were your goals?

We worked with team InfiVR for coming up with innovative and futuristic Trading application and visualisations. Focus was to use emerging Virtual Reality technology for visualising real time stock informations. It was about consuming large dataset and real time rendering in virtual reality environment with dynamic behaviour. We also included several data manipulations and visualisation feature which made it really useful to view stock data in VR rather than conventional screen based terminals.

How did you select InfiVR.com and what were the deciding factors?

We knew team InfiVR in past and had work with them on several other project. And when we came to know they are one of the experts when it comes to virtual reality we decide to hire them. We were impressed with case studies on which they had worked in past especially in VR and AR

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

As mentioned above project was about stock trading applications and stock data visualisation using Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality. We used native Andriod, Unity3D, OpenGL and various other technologies for developing the entire solution. Key deliverable were entire end virtual reality based solution, which included conceptualisation, UX design, development, testing, deployment and porting same onto our hardwares.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked with 5-7 member team which included Virtual Reality developers, AR developers, VR / AR Designers, Testing team, Functional Analyst, Domain experts and program managers.

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

This was an experimental project which later on became one of the main steam projects and later on our internal team took this up in a way with help of InfiVR team. But, this turned out to be really interesting with many new ideas which helped give birth to market leading features in our product.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timelines.

They are good, very organised. They use several project management tools internally like asana and jira. Which helped us as clients to keep track of project and status efficiently and transparently. Their billing mechanism is also, very transparent and good.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their innovative culture and thirst to build practical and workable solutions were impressive despite constraints in technology. Consider VR and AR they are still evolving technologies and present many constraints at times. But InfiVR team because of their experience and creative thinking always comes with innovative and cutting edge tech solutions.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

They can be more transparent about technological constraints. That way it will help us as well explain our leadership team of how we came up with solutions and what was rationale behind such implementation. They are little one expensive side, but considering their quality and commitment its worth it. However they can think of creative ways of reducing cost as well.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Probably for a bigger size engagement, they will have to increase the headcount across the vertical. In our case, since we knew what we need, things were good at all stages.

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the general manager of Wipro Limited, a system integrations company.

What challenge were you trying to address with InfiVR.com?

We needed help with demonstrating one of our labs where we do physical testing of different kinds of equipment.

What was the scope of their involvement?

InfiVR.com created a VR application where customers could better understand the different services we offer in our testing lab. The team did videography and photography onsite. The actual development happened on their premises. 

Like any other VR application, users will have a smart device and interact in a virtual world where they’ll be touching virtual objects and operating some of them to get a real feel of how our test equipment functions. It’s a standard VR application that was done with a lot of finesse and good quality.

How did you come to work with InfiVR.com?

We came to know of them through their work with another company. We looked at a few other similar companies come so we could see their capabilities. We chose InfiVR.com based on their quality, costs, and the delivery schedule they were able to meet. We were in a hurry to bring our offering to market.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent $10,000-$25,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from April until November 2019.

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We liked the final product. We used it in different international demos where we showcased our capability at booths. We got good feedback from both our sales team and management for its performance in various sales situations. 

How did InfiVR.com perform from a project management standpoint?

InfiVR.com met the final deadline that we had asked of them. They were responsive and agile during the development process. They integrated reviews where we could share and co-create some aspects alongside them, and they took into account our feedback.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Their personal involvement and expertise were impressive. They were hands-on.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I understand it’s a very small set-up. To be able to scale, InfiVR.com needs a few more people working for them.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Have a look at what they’ve done in the past in your particular industry. VR tends to be a very generic kind of technology. Unless you see specific implementations for your industry, it’s going to be a difficult thing to make. Look at their capabilities, such as the speed of implementation. One of InfiVR.com’s strengths is that they have a platform-based approach and a lot of reusable components that make them work faster.
