Virtual Reality

Another interesting topic is the current move towards virtual reality.

Years ago when I was teaching at Otago University we used QuickTIme Virtual Reality to create panoramas. We took 360 photos and stitched them together to make the VR movie. We inserted hotspots so users could look around a room/environment and then jump through to another. This was part of a Usability course and I took it further with my masters and looked at whether this technology would benefit all types of learners.

Now 17 years later we’re looking at it again!

Exciting times ahead….
