RALEIGH, North Carolina – April 7, 2021 – Transmira, Inc., the Raleigh-based start-up pioneering experiential reality (XR) technology, today announces that it has entered into a partnership with Kognition, the Philadelphia-based business building enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) technology for commercial property, to develop digital transformation solutions for augmented smart cities and intelligent architecture.

Transmira and Kognition will collaborate as part of a consortium of XR companies to develop and implement state-of-the-art technology and vanguard best practices to create the next generation of smart cities and intelligent architecture, including stadiums and arenas, office buildings, retail centers, university campuses, hotels, airports and more.

Massive global changes have affected the way people work, play, shop and socialize, creating the need for innovative new ideas and disruptive business practices.

End-to-end solutions for large-scale buildings, sports stadiums and entertainment venues are available immediately with expanded features and worldwide offerings that will be available from Summer 2021.
