ORETTC has unlocked Internet of Things capabilities in highly secured environments by developing a complex system engineering ecosystem that enables virtual XR headsets to access and retrieve data from real devices in a separate location. “We are able to remotely operate a motor,” said Mary Lin, interim director of ORETTC. “We can be here at ORETTC and turn on that motor at our partner facility at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, to gain pertinent data.
