Cracking Technology

It’s obvious that as the Metaverse develops into the thing the Metaverse Insider thinks it will inevitably become (something beyond huge), computer vision companies are going to play a key role in that journey in us being able to experience the virtual world like never before.

To do that will take some cracking technology and experts whose talents go beyond the normal. We will now take a quick look at four extraordinary computer vision companies making this dream a reality.

1. Actronika

Based on more than 30 years of research, Actronika has developed haptic technologies that enable tactile feedback to be seamlessly integrated into human-machine interfaces. Actronika’s technologies can be integrated into a plethora of devices, such as smartphones to enhance user experience, vehicle touchscreens to curb distraction while driving, game controllers to improve immersion.
