Flexpoint Sensor Systems Receives Purchase Orders as Sales Continue to Accelerate
DRAPER, UT / ACCESSWIRE / August 29, 2019 / Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (OTC PINK:FLXT) is pleased to announce it has recently received multiple, follow-on production orders from global market virtual reality leader, Manus VR. The orders, totaling nearly $40,000, are for a new production variation of their glove, allowing them to continue to be a market leader. Manus VR recently launched the brand new Manus Hand Mount, made to position the tracker on the hand, improving the native accuracy significantly. Using the new hand mounts removes the need for calibration, as well as drift. The sensors are expected to ship during the current quarter. As expected, the orders from Manus VR continue to grow in size and frequency.
Manus VR and their award-winning technology are at the forefront of this fast-growing industry. Manus VR is the world’s leading company for data gloves and is one of the few companies that measures the orientation of your hand, which allows full finger tracking. The glove is completely wireless and along with Flexpoint’s sensors, includes other technology partners. The product provides plugins for many of the major platforms. The Manus VR gloves bring solutions for VR simulations, motion capture, robotics and healthcare.
Established in 2016, Manus VR successfully brought to market a feature-rich glove offering. The glove integrates a number of technologies into a unique and truly inspired design. Manus VR has further realized their vision in supplying the industry’s finest components that integrate with various hardware platforms offered by such notable companies as HTC, Vicon, Xsens and others. Some of their more recent visionary partners include ESI Group and WorldViz.
“Flexpoint is proud to be fully integrated into the virtual reality product from a prestigious firm like Manus VR. These orders are important while we continue to work with several companies in other industries. We still anticipate larger orders across a variety of applications in the near term, but these orders with ongoing customers validate our technology. We continue to appreciate the long-term business partnership that is mutually beneficial. This relationship grows stronger as we continue to enhance and improve the technology. This reinforces our unique position in the rapidly evolving VR market,” stated Clark Mower, CEO Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc.
VR/AR will be an $80 billion market by 2025 according to Goldman Sachs. By comparison the TV market is $99 billion, the tablet PC market is $63 billion and the video game industry is $11 billion.
In addition to the gloves, Manus VR has developed a software development platform (SDK) that enables customers like those named above to design and build applications that extend far beyond virtual reality. This opens up a strong portion of the market that includes manufacturing, retail, healthcare, engineering, military and real estate applications.
