'A Rolling Stone gathers no moss.'

In 1993, only six engineering students gathered to develop fine-quality but affordable CG. The team name was ‘Digital Fusion’ initially, but as it grew into a corporation in 1995, its name changed to Visual Research Inc.

In 1994, VRi developed the DOS – based CG software “PowerCG” and supplied it to domestic companies as OEMs. However, in 1998, IMF hit Korea and cut off the OEMs supply business. It is how VRi realized the need for our brand, and with aspiration and passion, VRi launched “Tornado3D(Tornado1)” successfully at KOBA 2003. More and more crews joined VRi, and, eventually, in 2006, VRi released “KarismaCG(Tornado2),” and it was proudly selected as the standard character generator for MBC, Korea’s major terrestrial broadcasting station.

Since then, VRi has followed a strategy of high-end customer service, which has been the preliminary action of developing optimum workflows for our customers. Engineers dressed up during system maintenance and customer support duties. The global warranty was three years while our competitors’ was only one year. Based on the belief that consistent customer satisfaction is the primary subject, VRi has been loyal to developing professional broadcast CG software for 27 years and is currently leading the domestic industry. 

We were pioneers then, and we are pioneers.
VRi will never stop exploring to develop optimum workflows
for our customers.
