XCOM’s 60GHz network for extended reality (XR) supports fully immersive, untethered, multi-user experiences for simulated military and defense training environments
ORLANDO, Fla. (Nov. 21, 2022) – XCOM Labs will demonstrate its leadership in wireless extended reality (XR) experience for military and leadership during I/ITSEC 2022 Nov. 28 to Dec. 2 in Orlando, Fla. at booth #365. XCOM Labs’ Wireless XR Platform enables multiple users to move simultaneously and freely through interactive, immersive virtual reality and mixed reality digital environments for training, education and other XR applications. Experiencing lifelike, high resolution immersive environments is now possible through XCOM Labs Wireless XR Platform connected to a powerful edge computer rendering server.
Wireless XR runs on millimeter wave (mmW) spectrum to transfer thousands of megabits per second while ensuring no lag or latency as users move through areas as large as a basketball court. Millimeter wave spectrum is globally available. XCOM Labs Wireless XR Platform incorporates XCOM Labs’ split rendering solution to move heavy rendering workloads from the XR headset to an edge compute graphic processing unit.
XCOM Labs Wireless XR supports VR and MR training and simulation applications.
“We keep inventing new technologies in order to provide the most realistic extended reality possible,” said Paul Jacobs, CEO, chair and cofounder of XCOM Labs. “Our technology allows natural movement, supports multiple users and reliably delivers ultra-HD 4K video with such low delay that it transports users comfortably into the variety of extended reality applications.”
XCOM Labs Wireless XR system is accelerating the next generation of military and defense training by providing a platform for virtual reality, augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality content to be designed and delivered to enhance the proficiency of both the XR system and the operator.
“We’re enhancing the virtual training environment by engineering a low latency, high throughput end-to-end solution that supports a comfortable and cinematic quality visual experience. Ultimately, our goal is to improve actual outcomes during real-world challenges that our military, medical and other users regularly encounter in the field,” said Henry Orejuela, XCOM Labs Sales Director.
The XCOM I/ITSEC demonstration showcases the features and benefits of its Wireless XR network and software with content provided by our partners Aviar, the world’s first specialized VR platform for air transportation industry training, and WildRealm Inc, a company that provides a single global simulation environment for professional simulations and gaming.
You’re invited to:
• Experience first-hand the XCOM Labs critical improvements in connectivity in a fully interactive digital environment at I/ITSEC 2022 booth 365 on the tradeshow floor.
• Hear XCOM Labs’ Vice President of XR, Serafin Diaz present Unleashing fully immersive multi-user wireless XR experiences” on 11/28 at 1440 (2:40pm) at Booth #2588

Previously an SVP of Technology and Fellow at Qualcomm, XCOM Labs Chief Scientist Peter Black has worked on wireless system designs spanning 2G/3G/4G/5G. He contributed to all aspects of the life cycle of new innovations, starting with the concept, system design, prototype, evangelization, standardization, and finally the commercial ASIC realizations. He was a modem system architect in 1995 for the first commercial CDMA modem chip – the foundational Qualcomm chip-set product. In 1998, Peter co-led an R&D project which led to the high-speed Mobile Internet starting with 1xEV-DO. Concepts such as shared downlink, adaptive HARQ, link adaption, carrier-state feedback, fairness scheduling, carrier aggregation and cellular broadcast were designed, prototyped, standardized, and commercialized over the next 10 years under his direct technical leadership. The 3GPP HSDPA standard was motivated by and based on this foundational EVDO work. He holds 200+ US patents and holds a B.E. in EE from University of Queensland and was awarded a University Medal. He was also awarded a Fulbright Traveling Scholarship and attended Stanford University graduating with an M.S. and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering.
