## About

Founded in 2015 and based in Maharashtra, India, Absentia Virtual Reality Private Limited operates as a manufacturer of virtual reality head mount displays that enable conversion of the existing econtent to stereoscopic side-by-side 3D view. In January 2020, Absentia Virtual Reality Private Limited raised INR 49.01 million in series A funding led by investor Exfinity Venture Partners. The firm was co-founded by Hari Valiyath (CBO), Vrushali Prasade (co-CTO), and Shubham A Mishra.

The company offers immersive experiences through its flagship product, Tesseract. Named after the four-dimensional shape, Tesseract redefines virtual reality (VR) with its 1440p resolution, delivering clarity and immersion with a pixel density of 465 ppi. The headset boasts a wide 110° field of view and an imperceivable 10ms latency, ensuring interaction without the lag typical of other VR devices. Absentia VR has revolutionized VR technology with features like military-grade head tracking, anti-fog lens design, and myopic vision adjustments, catering to diverse user needs.
