DeuSens at MWC 2026: VR Training Hyperexperiences at the AENA Stand

DeuSens, at the heart of MWC 2026

Barcelona once again became the global technology epicentre this week. More than 110,000 professionals from over 200 countries gathered for the twentieth edition of the Mobile World Congress, the world's largest telecommunications and technology event. This edition arrived with a clear focus: artificial intelligence integrated into devices, networks and services, and the technologies that will define the next decade. And in that setting, DeuSens was exactly where it needed to be.

The Zaragoza-based company specialising in Hyperexperiences participated in MWC 2026 as part of the AENA stand, showcasing its immersive Virtual Reality training platform for the airport operator on one of the world's most important stages. Not as spectators. As protagonists.

A project born to reinvent training

Behind the presence at the AENA stand lies work that began when DeuSens's proposal was selected by AENA Ventures from more than 500 startups across 40 countries. A demanding, international selection process that tested both the team's technical strength and its ability to understand the real needs of one of Europe's largest infrastructure companies.

The result is a VR simulation platform for corporate training built for AENA employees. A solution that allows staff to train in simulated airport environments with a level of detail and fidelity that no manual, video or traditional classroom can match. Put on the headset and you're there: on the runway, in the terminal, in the exact scenario where you'll need to perform.

Immersive training is not a promise for the future. At AENA, it is already an operational reality. And MWC 2026 was the first major international window to show it.

What happened at the stand: full immersion, down to the sense of touch

Throughout the congress, visitors and industry professionals were able to approach the AENA stand and experience the DeuSens platform first-hand. The reaction was always the same: that moment when someone puts on the headset for the first time and the physical world disappears. The wow effect. The Hyperexperience.

The experience went beyond the visual. The training platform was presented equipped with WEART TouchDIVER Pro haptic gloves, a technology that adds the sense of touch to Virtual Reality simulation. In a corporate training context, this changes the rules: the user doesn't just observe the procedure — they perform it with their hands, feel resistance, physically interact with the virtual environment. When the goal is to prepare people for real-world situations with the highest level of fidelity, being able to feel the simulation —not just see it— is what turns virtual training into genuine professional readiness.

But beyond the immediate impact, what generated interest among the more technical and business-oriented profiles was the practical application: how a technology that many still associate with entertainment becomes, in the hands of DeuSens and AENA, a corporate VR training tool with real impact on error reduction, operational safety and learning efficiency.

The year XR hardware makes its leap

MWC 2026 also arrived packed with news from the extended reality hardware world, confirming that this is the year XR glasses stop being prototypes and become real products. Google was one of the most talked-about moments of the congress with its Android XR demo, the operating system powering a new generation of devices such as the XREAL Project Aura —AR glasses with a 70° field of view and voice and gesture control— and the Samsung Galaxy XR, the mixed reality headset with 4K micro-OLED displays that Samsung is beginning to roll out internationally this year.

The trend is clear: the industry's biggest players are betting on lighter, more accessible devices that integrate more naturally into everyday life. Glasses that no longer look like something out of a science fiction film, but are starting to look like something you could actually wear.

For those of us who have spent more than a decade working with these technologies, watching that ecosystem mature in real time —while presenting production projects like AENA's to 110,000 professionals— is a confirmation of what we have always believed: the Hyperexperience is not the future. It is the present. And Barcelona, once again, has been the place where that has been proven.
