CBN Agrotech is a IT & C company founded in 2011 by the Nourescu brothers, Cezar and Bogdan. Initially, the company developed complex custom cloud based software for B2B.

Subsequently, CBN found a new challenge due to their customers needs of automating the temperature reading process of their storage systems, leading the company to develop the most complete solution to protect their harvest.

We discovered that small to medium sized business face a software shortage, they have no solutions implemented or they have a general solution in place which is never implemented top to bottom but in small sections of the company and not adapted to their unique workflow.

So we found our market but to finance our internal projects we also provided systems and services for corporations like: Metropolitan Life, Auchan Group, Oney Finances, Paypoint Services.

This is how we work:
1. understand the business from the ground up, what every employee is doing and ask one question ‘how can we help you’
2. come with proposals that streamline as much as possible operations
3. build the system the customer needs not the one we can sell faster
4. give control of every operation to management
5. long time relationship, the system grows and adapts with the firm

Holosee has developed an end-to-end solution for capturing, generating and streaming photorealistic holograms of real people in Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality.
Users can watch recorded content or interact and communicate in real time using the live streaming version with real size holograms in their own room.

Holosee is a solution for creating realistic high definition holograms for AR/VR. In cinema the human mind recognizes the image of the actor as a true reflection of the person.
When it comes to 3D models and computer generated images, the mind, at a subconscious level, recognizes that the image is not a true reflection of a human being, but a 3D model of it.

We plan to solve this by offering a tool that creates and streams hi-definition holographic content, using a different approach than classic computer generated images.
