COMPANY FACT SHEET
Overview

Lifeliqe is a platform company for the creation, sharing and deployment of advanced interactive models into mobile, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and 3D printable media. Lifeliqe’s platform exclusively presents Corinth Classroom, a visual learning tool with 1,000 advanced interactive (3D) models proven to increase engagement and learning in students. Education is the first industry launching on the Lifeliqe platform with more to follow.


Technology Behind Virtual & Augmented Reality

Lifeliqe is a leader in the latest virtual and augmented reality technologies. Its solutions leverage different types of VR/AR approaches. Using a technology called “stereo rendering,” objects are manipulated in a real environment between the screen and a user’s head. Lifeliqe technology integrates head tracking with full motion parallax and a precision interactive stylus. Lifeliqe also works with sensor-based virtual reality -- technology used by HTC Vive, for example -- to merge real word objects into a virtual reality setup. The combined real word environment uses a two-part system based on stereoscopic 3D rendering on a semi-transparent mirror (i.e. normal or head mounted-glasses).


Industry Facts & Statistics

  • Augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) are poised to become one of the next largest consumer electronics verticals. According to Goldman Sachs, AR/VR has the potential to surpass the TV market in annual revenue by 2025, which would make AR/VR bigger than TV in less than 10 years. And in 2015 alone, AR/VR startups raised a total of $658M in equity financing across 126 deals. (Source: CB Insights)

  • According to research by Penn State University, students performing a task with Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) technology were significantly more efficient compared to those who didn’t use IVR. On average, the group using Oculus Rift completed the task in 23.21 seconds while the other group assembled the pot in 49.04 seconds – more than double the first group’s time.

  • According to Professor Dr. Anne Bamford, visual learning improves the pupils’ understanding of functionality and by seeing the whole of something, and children are able to understand the parts. The research results indicated that the pupils had a strong preference for visual and kinesthetic learning, with 85% of the pupils preferring seeing and doing while only 15% of pupils preferred hearing.
