Michael Glading - New Zealand Open Tournament Director (February 2014) - NZ Open 2015

"We have all been truly overawed with the power... of the system, it's modelling, and it's operation. It is, by a long way, the best 3D that I have worked with anywhere..."
Richard Carr, Senior Producer, Formula One, BBC. (January 2011) - Monte Carlo 2012

"The... technology supplied by Animation Research Ltd is superior to anything seen previously, and testing has delivered the most consistent data our company has ever had."
Jason Paris - Head of Emerging Business, TVNZ (Louis Vuitton Pacific Series 2009) - Louis Vuitton 2009
