Case Study: Merck & Co. streamlines lab design and training with Invonto's VR simulation

Merck & Co. builds VR lab simulation in 8 weeks with Invonto

Merck & Co., a global healthcare company, was designing a new laboratory and needed to validate the layout and equipment design before construction to minimize costly rework. They partnered with vendor Invonto to develop a virtual reality application for lab simulation.

Invonto created an immersive VR app for the Oculus Quest, building over 150 custom 3D models to achieve a realistic and interactive experience. This solution allowed Merck to gather stakeholder feedback, leading to 23 blueprint improvements. The VR app, developed in just eight weeks for under $100k, saved millions in potential construction costs and will also be used for safer employee training.
