Virtual reality (Master of Applied Artificial Intelligence - Professional)

Specialisation

Overview

Virtual reality (VR) is an immersive digital environment that can replicate lifelike physical environments or portray a fictional artificial world, making the user feel  immersed in that environment as if it were real life. These can be viewed through a head mounted display (e.g. Oculus Rift and HTC Vive), a smartphone based display (e.g. Google Cardboard), or by standing within a cube or dome showing 3D projections on every surface. VR allows users to interact with these environments and can also create additional sensory experiences including virtual touch through haptic technology, smell, taste and sound. There is a strong emphasis on creating content that will assist in shaping the future of education, training and entertainment.
