Tests and evaluation

Using virtual simulations effectively

VR, AR and 360° are on the rise. New moving image formats are not only revolutionising the digital media world, but are also opening up promising potential applications in all areas of life. But the range of content and technical quality is wide. How can it be ensured that investments in corresponding projects are worthwhile? The skip Institute of the Fresenius University of Applied Sciences develops effective prototypes and innovative procedures to test the efficiency and effectiveness of virtual simulations for business objectives.

The skip Institute certifies Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and 360° Technology

Viewing a property from your couch, starting a job interview at the touch of a button or measuring Cologne Cathedral with glasses - digitalisation is opening up countless new possibilities to technically expand reality or even create our own realities. A few examples from our projects:

Training as a bank clerk will soon be in digital hands at the Bundesverband Deutsche Volksbanken Raiffeisen Banken (BVR).

A VR simulation for the digital integration of refugee victims in Germany

The Dortmund hospital is considering using VR to prevent postoperative delirium or at least reduce its consequences.

More powerful processors, better graphics cards, sensors and cameras and innovative possibilities in software development have contributed to the rapid development of virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and 360° technologies. The new moving image formats are not only revolutionising the digital media world, but are also opening up promising application potential in all areas of life. Because they enable extraordinary perspectives, experiences and closeness with simultaneous distance.

For users, the new technological cosmos is both fascinating and increasingly unmanageable. Countless providers advertise the implementation of innovative VR, AR and 360° media. The range of content and technical quality is broad. Do you want to invest in the implementation of new moving image formats? Ensure efficient and high-output production!

The skip Institute at Fresenius University of Applied Sciences develops high-quality prototypes in the field of VR, AR and 360° and has the expertise to determine and certify the effectiveness and efficiency of virtual simulations. We accompany you on the way to a customised project and/or check the suitability of concepts or prototypes for your business objectives with the help of a scientifically based parameter catalogue.

Who are we?

For several years, the skip Institute has been implementing successful projects in the areas of VR, AR and 360°. Some of our projects have been funded by the state of NRW. The institute's work has earned it special awards, such as that of the DIVR (the DIVR is the first German institute for virtual reality). With its expertise, skip is a reliable advisory body in the industry.

What do we offer?

We would like to support users in the evaluation of projects in the areas of VR, AR and 360° in order to promote sensible investments in virtual simulations and to ensure content and technical quality in the industry. Therefore we offer:

• Development of VR, AR & 360° concepts based on entrepreneurial challenge
• Prototype implementation
• Accompanying evaluation of projects through individualised studies
• Derivation of recommendations for practical use
• Development of customised action plans for final production
• Measuring, evaluating and ensuring the effectiveness of projects
• Advice and guidance on virtual simulation activities
• Certification of the efficiency and effectiveness of concepts and prototypes
