You’re invited to apply for Lenovo’s first Enterprise  Workshop for ThinkReality, its newly announced brand for commercial AR and VR solutions.

The workshop will take place Nov 1 10am-3pm, during the VR/AR Global Summit, Nov 1-2, in Vancouver Canada at the new renowned venue, the PARQ Hotel and Casino. 

Deadline to apply for the workshop is October 15, 2019.

At the Workshop, Lenovo product managers and engineers will be on-site to provide information on the platform, the pipeline of features and benefits, and demonstrations including the Lenovo cloud portal that can be used for device, app and user management. The morning session from 10 am – noon will include a product and demo workshop, and the afternoon session from 1-3 pm will include a technical developer session where you can build your own application.

In the morning session, you’ll get exposed to early ThinkReality app development partners who will present three types of AR apps built on the ThinkReality A6, and will review how they built these applications, offer best practices, and be on site to answer questions.

In the afternoon session, Developers will be given the opportunity to develop a Proof-of-Concept (POC) application on the ThinkReality A6 during the workshop. This allows developers to build and deploy applications in a more open environment without the risk of sharing custom application solutions and IP with other attendees.
