(Nasdaq: CETX, CETXP, CETXW), a world leading industrial and manufacturing company, today announced that it plans to release a virtual reality (VR) & augmented reality (AR) software application, called Workbench VR, specifically for the manufacturing industry.

Cemtrex’s Chairman and CEO, Saagar Govil commented, “Workbench VR is the first VR / AR application to provide a set of tools to the manufacturing team to assist the worker and manager to accurately track, measure, and improve assembly operations. Due to our extensive experience and number of customers in industrial and manufacturing environments we see this application as the ideal tool to continue to create more value for our clients. Our Workbench VR application will be of immense value to any manufacturing operation that seeks to cut costs and get an edge on their competition.“
