Mimbus – Pico Neo 3 / Meta Quest 3

Mimbus set out to tackle a big challenge: how to make vocational training more appealing and accessible? In industries such as skilled trades or industrial and vocational sectors, companies struggle to find qualified workers as traditional training can be expensive and outdated. In many cases, schools and training centers rely on costly equipment, physical materials, and experienced instructors, all of which are harder to get and maintain today. On top of that, many young people see vocational careers as less exciting than other paths. 

To challenge this, Mimbus needed a way to modernize how people learn practical skills. The solution had to make training realistic, safe, and engaging, while keeping costs under control and giving learners a clear path to succeed. For Mimbus, VR technology offered the perfect answer to these challenges.

To make this vision a reality, Mimbus needed reliable hardware that would make their  immersive training content easy to deliver and simple to manage. The goal was to give schools and training centers a ready-to-use XR experience that works straight out of the box, without needing extra PCs or complicated tech setups. For Mimbus, it was essential that the system could run independently, deliver smooth performance in classrooms or workshops, and be safe and secure for all learners.

Key requirements included a standalone headset that trainers could set up quickly to become a safe virtual environment where learners could practice risky tasks without danger, and including smart tools to track each student’s progress in real time. Just as important, the solution had to be easy for training centers to roll out, even those without large IT teams. In the end, Mimbus wanted to deliver a scalable, engaging VR experience that teachers and learners could start using right away, with confidence.

To bring to life its vision of modern vocational training, Mimbus partnered with VR Expert. With VR Expert’s guidance, Mimbus found the right hardware configuration for each client’s specific training needs. Rather than limiting themselves to a single device, they remain flexible and choose the headset that best fits the project, selecting primarily between the Pico Neo 3 and the Meta Quest 3.

For many training centers, the Pico Neo 3 is the preferred option thanks to its enterprise-friendly features, open platform, and easy mass deployment. It’s ideal for schools or companies that need strong control over data and want a reliable solution that works even offline, without depending on consumer-focused platforms.

When the training requires high-end graphics and maximum immersion, Mimbus also works with the Meta Quest 3. This headset delivers powerful performance and sharper visuals, which make realistic industrial simulations even more effective for hands-on learning.

By partnering with VR Expert, Mimbus ensures that each training rollout is equipped with the headset that best fits the job: practical, cost-effective, and ready to use. This means every learner gets a safe, modern training experience from day one.

In practice, VR Expert provides VR headsets to clients like training centers, schools, and industrial companies. These headsets are the gateway to Mimbus’ immersive learning platform, which helps people develop real hands-on skills in fields such as welding, painting, woodworking, or logistics. 

For example, a training center might use the Pico Neo 3 or Meta Quest 3 to let students practice welding techniques in VR. Instead of consuming expensive materials or working in potentially risky conditions, students can train in a realistic simulation, repeat tasks as many times as they need, and get real-time feedback to improve faster. Because the headsets run Mimbus’ software, clients can create repeatable, engaging training scenarios and track each learner’s progress with detailed performance data. This makes training more cost-effective, scalable, and safer, helping teachers modernize how they teach practical skills. In short, this collaboration with VR Expert enables Mimbus to equip their clients with the right tools and support to transform how they train the next generation of skilled workers.

Additionally, VR Expert’s flexible hardware and service offering helps Mimbus equip training centers of all sizes, whether it’s a small local rollout or a large national or international project. This flexibility is essential for Mimbus, as they work with many different clients, from local schools to major industrial companies around the world. VR Expert’s wide geographic reach means fast delivery, reliable local support, and smooth logistics, so that training centers get exactly what they need, when they need it. 

Most importantly, the strong partnership between Mimbus and VR Expert is built on clear communication and proactive teamwork. By understanding Mimbus’ goals and responding quickly to new needs, VR Expert helps make sure every training center gets a high-quality, ready-to-use XR solution that makes hands-on learning more engaging and effective, wherever they are.
