Metaverse for virtual education 1 by Lau, Wynne Chen Yi

“…Several studies have indicated that the use of higher quality VR equipment provides a more immersive experience for its users, however, not all education institutes have the budget to invest in the more expensive and higher quality VR equipment for every one of their students. Hence, this project focuses on the development of a metaverse prototype for applications in virtual education to help educational institutes manage the use of the limited amount of VR equipment. …”
