Shadow Creator, a world's leading mixed reality (MR) company announced that by focusing on the MR + education segment and leveraging the super-expressive power of MR, it has created a high sci-fi MR holographic teaching experience for the education industry. At present, the company's development in the field of education has gained a strong momentum of development. Its MR products and technologies have entered more than 400 schools and universities in China and its MR glasses have received 40K orders in the education market. At the same time, with the rapid development of 5G technology, the company is working with partners to build 5G + MR holographic classrooms and innovative laboratories for hundreds of key middle schools and well-known universities in China.
Victor Sun, chairman of Shadow Creator, said: "I think MR will be the next-generation computing platform with powerful computing power in parallel with the end cloud, more natural and friendly interaction as well as richer application scenarios. Shadow Creator has been committed to the MR industry development and has strong expertise in MR technology and hardware. By working with leading XR platform vendors like Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., we are pushing MR applications to a wider range of industries."
Said Bakadir, director of product management, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. "We are witnessing how XR is transforming entertainment, productivity and how it brings new possibilities for learning and education. We are glad to see the momentum that Shadow Creator has achieved in education and how they are driving innovation in China's XR industry and expanding globally.

With the advent of the 5G era, Shadow Creator has created an innovative 5G + MR holographic classroom solution, incorporating the most advanced MR and 5G technologies into the classrooms and training programs, which greatly improved knowledge retention for students. The emergence of 5G and MR holographic classrooms has broken the space constraints of education and teaching. Classroom teaching has entered a new model of multi-person online shared lectures, which also helped to solve the uneven distribution of education resources. Holographic education brings more than just changes to the content of teaching. Students' imagination is no longer limited by textbooks and space, and creative thinking is dynamically and three-dimensionally displayed in front of them. Both students and teachers enjoyed this method of lectures.
In terms of higher education, Shadow Creator has been working with close to hundreds of well-known universities in China to establish innovative scientific research laboratories for them, to visualize obscure and abstract theoretical models in a holographic manner, to facilitate intuitive discussions and research, and to quickly transform scientific research into scientific research results. In the field of K12 education, Shadow Creator has reached cooperation with more than a hundred famous middle schools in China to build 5G + MR classrooms to bring students into a virtual 3D holographic world. Through a comprehensive curriculum system, students can maximize their imagination and innovation. The new types of classrooms will also provide strong support for improving the school's influence and diversified talent training.
Shadow Creator has launched JIMO and JIMO Air in 2019. JIMO is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon™ 845 Mobile XR Platform, and the device weighs only 120g, which is the industry’s lightest all-in-one MR smart glass. JIMO Air is an innovative MR glass, which can be tethered to a Snapdragon™ 855 or Snapdragon 865 5G powered smartphone to bring excellent MR experiences to life.
