February 2023 – Talon Simulations, a provider of extended reality simulator solutions, is excited to become a new member of the VR/AR Association (VRARA). Talon brings 10 years of industry experience deploying XR vehicle simulators to various military branches and national entertainment chains.
As a simulator solutions provider, Talon delivers turn key systems that are developed specifically for each client by utilizing modular hardware components and a versatile software development kit. Their Talon Strike XR Vehicle Training Platform can be configured for land, air, sea, or space vehicles and incorporates force feedback controls, a high resolution head mounted display, and a dynamic motion simulator for a fully immersive and realistic training scenario. They have utilized the same technology to develop an off the shelf arcade simulator, the Talon Vortex, that offers guests the ability to swipe their card and choose to experience a race car, roller coaster, fighter jet, or turret shooter. Talon also helped develop, deploy and continues to support 150 custom four seat motion simulators for Dave & Buster’s arcades throughout the US and aids other XR manufacturers with installation and support of their products, thus reducing the risk of adopting XR technology for customers all around the world.
“Our team has been eager to become a part of the VR/AR Association in order to increase our involvement with the rapidly evolving immersive technology industry,” states Brandon Naids, Talon’s CEO and Co-Founder. “We believe we can relay knowledge that we have developed working in the space over the last 10 years to aid in the ease of adoption for others. We look forward to connecting with the global community and contributing to building a strong and effective industry.”
“The solutions that Talon Simulations develops are great examples of how immersive technology is being used in both entertainment and military training and we look forward to having them participate in the VRARA and expand into other industries.” states John Cunningham, President VRARA Central Florida Chapter.
