Video experience pioneer Accedo has acquired the Emmy-nominated extended reality (XR) solutions provider eyecandylab.
Eyecandylab products run use cases for XR regardless of platform.
“Our strategic roadmap and vision of the future of XR solutions in the wider media industry are aligned and we believe that together we will be able to deliver even more value to customers and partners,” said Accedo TV CEO Michael Lantz.
Eyecandylab’s flagship patented augmen.tv platform for XR applications as well as its Web3-based loyalty solution “Watch&Earn” will be integrated into Accedo’s software stack and will be offered both to customers doing their own XR development and to those who would like support from Accedo’s global team.
“Accedo’s global presence and proven ability to innovate will enable us to accelerate adoption,” added Robin Sho Moser, CEO and co-founder, eyecandylab. “We are seeing that interactivity and immersion is becoming increasingly important for a delightful and engaging viewing experience. With Accedo’s footprint in the media industry, we are in a great position to deliver innovative business cases in a scalable way.”
Eyecandylab has worked on projects with Apple, Google and Ericcson.
