Virtual Reality Showcase
A young participant dons an HTC virtual reality headset at the 4th annual STEM Symposium. Sponsored by LGS Innovations, the virtual reality demonstration showcased the next evolution in computer-aided design capability. Current gesture-based and haptic devices, as well as head-mounted displays, allow users to more authentically feel the objects in displays. The technology is especially useful for military training, as well as in classroom settings, to allow simulations take on new life and immediacy.
