About this event

ive into the immersive world of Virtual Reality (VR)—a simulated experience powered by 3D near–eye displays and real‑time head tracking that transports users into fully immersive virtual environments. With a VR headset or multi‑screen setup, participants can look, move, and interact within lifelike digital worlds. VR typically combines real‑time visuals, spatial audio, and sometimes tactile feedback through haptics or motion controls.

This event offers a comprehensive look at VR, including its history, core technologies, real‑world applications, and emerging accessibility considerations. From first concepts to modern headsets with six‑degrees‑of‑freedom (6DoF), attendees will discover how VR has evolved and why it matters now.
