Virtual Reality Creates Training Opportunities For Businesses, Schools

You might think about the Metaverse and virtual reality as something for gamers, but classrooms and companies across Georgia are now using it as a learning tool.

Meta created the Virtual Reality Metaversity for institutions such as Morehouse College that enroll in the program. Students are building 3D molecules in one advanced organic chemistry class. The school reports higher grade averages in those virtual reality classes.

Sean Hurwitz, CEO of PixoVR, said the evolution of wearable headsets and controls has been game-changing for businesses.

“You can fully immerse in this 3D environment. We work with a very large insurance company and their customers and they’re starting to use it with their customers and they’re seeing fewer accidents and at the end of the day everyone can come home safely,” said Hurwitz.

This technology can be used by firefighters, plumbers, welders, and students.
