Coding VR, based in Chatelera, develops solutions for businesses, communities and other structures looking for virtual or augmented reality.
Video games, serious gaming, heritage tours across interlaced screens… CodingVR navigates many realities. Created at the end of 2021, the young company Châtelleraudaise is a studio for 3D virtual experiences. Stéphane Barbot summarizes “experiments in a broad sense including video games, augmented reality, virtual reality, and more, the metaverse, which blends 3D, the web, and cryptocurrency.” A developer and computer engineer, the leader advances in these parallel worlds on familiar territory. He cut his teeth in the video game and car innovation sectors long before embarking on this new professional adventure.

And few others are like him. “The idea is to use the Blossac Theater for prototyping,” explains Stéphane Barbot. 3D solutions are often expensive because they are custom designed, unlike the so-called “off-the-shelf” solutions that CodingVR wants to offer. Principle: Reproducing the technical bases to put them at the service of individual projects, whatever the field. Today, the activity of the young company is mainly focused on video games, but Stefan Barbeau is already planning to publish it in training and interior design …
