xReality Group Limited (XRG) specialises in building and operating immersive XR products and experiences that enhance lives. xReality Group’s portfolio includes physical and digital simulation used across the enterprise, defence and consumer markets. Using technology we create experiences without the physical limitations found in the real world.
XR stands for eXtended Reality, and is a catch-all term for Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR). Extended Reality combines physical and digital simulation for both consumer and enterprise market segments. The XR category is growing rapidly with the market predicted to grow from US $26B in 2020 to US $905B in 2027. Facebook’s parent, Meta, is investing $10Bn US/year alone into accelerating development of the Metaverse.
The Company was founded by two ex-SAS soldiers to bring the joy of simulated human flight to the region through cutting-edge indoor skydiving facilities. In recent years, the Company has expanded its simulation portfolio from indoor skydiving to include out of home virtual reality entertainment, defence XR training and XR software development.
xReality Group companies include Operator XR, a Defence and Law Enforcement simulation training company, Red Cartel, an XR production company, two Australian iFLY Indoor Skydiving Facilities, and four FREAK Virtual Reality venues.
The Company listed on the ASX on 18 January 2013 as Indoor Skydive Australia Group Limited (ASX:IDZ) and was rebranded to xReality Group Limited ASX: XRG on 8th December 2021.
We would like to extend our gratitude to Senator The Honourable Kate Lundy for the letter received, fully endorsing Indoor Skydive Australia Group’s efforts to develop Australia’s first indoor skydiving facility at Penrith, New South Wales.

Penrith may become the home of Australia’s first vertical wind shaft indoor skydiving centre. Yes that is right – indoor.
Rather than jump out of a plane kilometres about the earth’s surface, adventure seekers will now be able to experience sky diving without leaving the ground.
Raybal Building Services lodged a development application two days before Christmas to build an indoor skydiving centre adjacent to Penrith Panthers.
So how do you skydive indoors?
The indoor skydiving experience is created by fans that generate 150 miles per hour wind capable of lifting flyers into the air within a specially designed flight chamber.
Skydivers will be able to see their surroundings, as the flight chamber will be built from glass.
The company also said that it is possible that the facility will be used for the training of military personnel whose job can include skydiving.
The development application is currently on display at Penrith City Council.
