What is X.R.?
eXtended Reality (XR) is an umbrella-term that encompasses Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR).
- We hold a collection of over 20 XR experiences, both for educational and entertainment purposes.
- The Makerspace houses a VR Room, where the HTC Vive is installed. The room has 30 square feet of playable area for VR.
- We have different types of VR and AR equipment. RMC faculty and students can also check out a Meta Quest 2 from the Makerspace to use in your own location. User training by the Makerspace staff is required for borrowing VR equipment.
- The Makerspace has a computer station capable of running game engines such as Unity or Unreal Engine, which are commonly used to create XR experiences.
Faculty wanting to use X.R. for class assignments should look at the Digital Projects page.
