Privacy-Compliant Extended Reality Platform for Industrial Training and Operations

digitalPilotedTRL 6

Imagine having a high-tech VR headset for your factory that doesn't leak your company secrets or break privacy laws. It's like building a secure, open-source operating system for industrial goggles so companies aren't locked into one expensive foreign brand. This makes it easier for workers to learn complex tasks without risking sensitive data.

The business problem

What needed solving

European industries rely on non-EU XR technologies that often clash with GDPR privacy rules and lack specific industrial tailoring, creating risks for data sovereignty and worker acceptance.

The solution

What was built

A European open XR platform and the second-generation Lynx R2 headset with a redesigned pancake lens system. It includes integrated APIs for industrial use.

The project focuses on the definition and integration of relevant APIs to the platform to ensure it works with industrial needs.

Consortium

Who built it

The consortium is heavily weighted toward commercial application, with a 56% industry ratio consisting of 5 industrial partners and 6 SMEs. This balance, combined with the involvement of the Universitat Politècnica de València and legal experts, suggests a strong focus on moving from research to a marketable, legally compliant product rather than a theoretical study.
