As we approach the holiday season, we extend our warmest wishes for a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year 🎄 🎄 🥰 . Despite this year being challenging for many of us, we're pleased to end this year positively 🤟. Not only the BMW 328 has arrived safely at our office today - our Innovation Award from BMW Slovensko 😊, but we are proud today to highlight some of our key achievements. 🎄 We successfully integrated holographic calls into native smartphone dialers, collaborating with Telefónica and Ericsson. This breakthrough enables users to experience holographic communication without additional apps, positioning MATSUKO at the forefront of immersive telecommunications 🎄 At MWC, the world's most influential telecom event, we showcased our spatial computing experience for holographic meetings with Telefónica and NVIDIA. 🎄 We partnered with InoBat to create holographic and virtual training solutions for battery production and sustainable energy technologies. The pilot training program launches in Q1 2025 at InoBat's facilities, with plans to expand VR training solutions to schools and R&D centres across the region. 🎄 We signed a deal to develop an immersive VR training program with the Secondary Vocational School of Industrial Technologies 😍 at Kosice-Saca. 🎄 Our partnership with Hololight aims to revolutionize 3D collaboration in B2B sectors. 🎄 We were highlighted as one of the first experiences at Apple Vision Pro during Apple's WWDC 2024. 🎄 We were listed among Startups to Watch by Zaka.vc and awarded by BMW, UNIQA Insurance Group at JCI (Junior Chamber International). And much more to make us confident to say that 2025 will be a great year! Thank you to everybody who made this possible and have a very Merry Christmas 🤍 ❤️ #GratefulMoment #Innovation #TechBreakthroughs #MATSUKO2024

MATSUKO is bringing virtual training to our new client, InoBat - a company specializing in the research, development, and production of innovative electric batteries that has already launched the first battery cell production line in #Slovakia. 👏 Through #EduBat, we have signed an agreement with a mission to revolutionize #STEM and #sustainability #education in Slovakia with immersive VR and holographic training. 💪🤩In the first pilot, we will offer students a firsthand experience of battery R&D and manufacturing, equipping them with essential skills for a sustainable future! 👐Read more in the post below.
EXCITING COLLABORATION WITH A LEADER IN HOLOGRAPHIC TECHNOLOGY InoBat Battery Academy, created to support talent pipeline for the development of battery R&D and manufacturing in Slovakia is now evolving into EduBat a national STEM and Sustainability education hub for jobs of the future. With EduBat we put innovation in the centre of our education programs, going hand in hand with the emerging IT trends and creating strategic partnerships with best players in the industry. That's why we’re thrilled to announce our Memorandum of Understanding with MATSUKO , a Slovak-born company, which has become a global leader in Holographic collaboration, cooperating with tech giants like NVIDIA, Telefónica or Ericsson. Through this collaboration we will put together the technological knowledge, developed by InoBat with virtual reality and the world’s most realistic human holograms, designed by MATSUKO to create special training on batteries and sustainability. Battery training in virtual reality will offer an immersive learning experience that allows students to explore cutting-edge technology, walking through R&D labs as well as battery manufacturing lines and acquiring skills they’ll need for their future careers. Our development teams are already hard at work, with the pilot training launching in early 2025. “We believe this is the beginning of Slovakia’s very own “Silicon Valley” growing between Voderady - home of first Slovak battery and Surany – the centre of battery manufacturing. The future is about innovation and fast developing skills and competence needed for the whole electrification value chain. With EduBat we are not going to compete for the rare talents, we are going to create them. Slovakia has enormous potential to become the European leader in STEM and Sustainability education and we are honoured to steer the brighter future where education and innovation create lasting prosperity for the entire country”, says Victoria Vernarecova, InoBat’s COO. “At MATSUKO, we’re thrilled to be partnering with EduBat to redefine the future of training and education.

👉 En los últimos años, gigantes tecnológicos como Apple, Meta y Microsoft han contribuido a la industria #XR aportando increíbles dispositivos como AppleVisionPro, MetaQuest3 y Hololens2, impulsando una revolución en la forma en que interactuamos con el mundo digital. 🌍 En Telefonica apostamos por soluciones altamente estandarizadas y que de forma sencilla garanticen una compatibilidad global y una experiencia fluida para todos los usuarios y dispositivos, aportando: 🏃♂️Alta velocidad de transmisión de datos: La red #5G ofrece velocidades de carga y descarga significativamente mayores en comparación con las generaciones anteriores. Esto es esencial para la transmisión de datos voluminosos que requieren los #hologramas de alta calidad. ⬇ Baja latencia: La #latencia reducida de la red 5G y el #Edge permiten una interacción en tiempo real casi instantánea. Esto es vital para las llamadas holográficas, donde cualquier retraso en la transmisión de datos puede afectar negativamente la experiencia del usuario. 💻Capacidad de ancho de banda: La red 5G puede manejar una mayor cantidad de dispositivos conectados simultáneamente sin degradar la calidad del servicio. Esto permite que múltiples usuarios puedan participar en llamadas holográficas sin problemas de congestión. 👉El último hito realizado en Telefónica junto a Ericsson y MATSUKO y que forma parte del Proyecto Europeo 6G-XR Te lo cuentan mis compañeros Fernando Pargas Nieto y Emilio Manuel Morata. https://lnkd.in/dizEt5jT
