Virtual Immersive Educational Systems: Early Results and Lessons Learned

Higher education is embracing a digital transformation in a relatively slow adoption rate, with few fragmented solutions to portray the capabilities of new immersive technologies like Virtual Reality (VR). One may argue that deployment costs and substantial levels of design knowledge might be critical stagnation factors to create effective Virtual Immersive Educational (VIE) systems. We attempt to address these impediments in a cost-effective and user-friendly VIE system. In this paper, we report in brief the main elements of this design and initial result and lessons learned.
