The days of nauseating roller-coaster movies are gone. Where it was in its infancy at the time, VR has evolved into a wonderful technology capable of transporting the user into another world. When you put the headset on your head, you are disconnected from the here and now and see yourself in a truly immersive experience. Often the audio-visual experience of VR is accompanied by motion controllers. This allows the user to actually perform actions in the digital experience where they are.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Let’s dive into some (scientific) research for a moment, to show just how effective Virtual Reality is. <\/span><\/p>\n Virtual Reality can be used for training, education, simulations, remote meetings, as a promotional tool and for entertainment or games. The power of Virtual Reality is in creating a special experience within the context of a product, service or story.<\/span> That way you make real impact. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The examples from research say it all. Virtual Reality is capable of captivating <\/i>schoolchildren and students more<\/span>\u00a0than conventional education. Concentration, engagement and attention go up. Students are less distracted and the knowledge sticks better. Sounds like the ideal way to teach.<\/span><\/p>\n Especially for <\/span>visual <\/span><\/i>information<\/em>, Virtual Reality can be of tremendous value. Imagine an anatomy lesson, for example, in Virtual Reality, this allows for the detailed study of structures in the human body, without the use of corporeal remains. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Showing workers around, disassembling and reassembling machines, demonstrating medical procedures or going through a training program with video footage and interactive questions. As we saw in the studies above, information has been shown to be better absorbed and also better retained by users through Virtual Reality.<\/span><\/p>\n Also from a <\/span>practical <\/span><\/i>point of view, <\/span>Virtual Reality can be a godsend when, for example, you need to train international workers or people to work with hazardous equipment. They don’t have to fly to you, dangerous devices don’t have to be used until people know how to handle them and that safety video that no one watches? Suddenly super interesting when you are in it yourself! <\/span><\/p>\n Because of its immersive and stimulating nature, training or explanation in Virtual Reality has greater compliance and employees will finish the training better prepared. Besides, it’s just a lot of fun.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Whereas Augmented Reality (AR) is suitable for demonstrating a product, Virtual Reality provides the opportunity to <\/span>really experience and use a product<\/span><\/i>. Especially when larger products are involved, VR gives a better sense of scale and provides the opportunity to be able to naturally walk around the product and see it properly. Not everything is suitable for viewing in AR through your phone screen at full size.<\/span><\/p>\n At trade shows, for example, VR can be an interesting addition because Virtual Reality can provoke <\/span>curiosity <\/span><\/i>and thus attracts visitors, it is an intriguing way to display your products or services, it eliminates practical problems for demonstrating large products and allows a wide variety of products or dangerous products to be safely displayed. In addition, an interactive component can be created that allows visitors to actually experience your product or service. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Remote collaboration has become a popular phenomenon in companies and businesses. Virtual Reality can be a key factor in its success. Meeting from<\/span> home in VR saves time and money. It is so much nicer to be able to interact with colleagues from all over the world. In the comfort of your home, in a truly pleasant manner<\/span>. Moreover, VR is much more fun, sociable, impressive and attention-grabbing than a teams meeting.<\/span><\/p>\nThe facts<\/b><\/h4>\n
