What We Do



We are the first Canadian post-secondary engineering design team dedicated to exploring extended reality technologies.

UCXR, formerly known as ARmed, is an engineering design team at the University of Calgary dedicated to exploring the frontiers of XR technology.

We bring together hardware design, software development, and UX to build spatially aware systems — from PCBs to immersive interfaces.

Through collaborative innovation, we aim to enhance human capabilities through the power of spatial computing.

Every aspect of our project is created in-house

From the mechanical and electrical systems to the software that powers the headset, our multidisciplinary team collaborates closely to ensure seamless integration across all components.

We create our own 3D models
and animations

Specializing in Blender, our creative team crafts detailed animations and 3D models to bring our vision to life.

Showcasing the potential
of mixed reality

As a techical mixed reality team we plan on taking our designs to mixed reality conferences on a yearly basis.

Extended Reality (XR) Applications

Education & Learning

Interactive 3D models bring concepts to life. Explore human anatomy, chemistry molecules, historical reconstructions, and planetary systems in immersive detail.

AR Educational Experience
Gaming & Entertainment

Transform your environment into a playground with AR games that blend digital elements with physical space, creating immersive experiences and social interactions.

AR Gaming
Industrial & Manufacturing

Enhance worker productivity with hands-free guided assembly, remote expert assistance, equipment maintenance visualization, and quality control inspections.
