Is it worth investing in education with the use of virtual reality?

Yes, we would like to encourage you to find and learn more applications thanks to which you can increase your knowledge. Even if you do not have special equipment in the form of a powerful PC and the entire VR set, maybe your phone supports virtual reality. You can check it using such an application for android phones – link at mazerspace.com.

To sum up – VR can be interesting and useful at the same time. It all depends on how you use the potential of virtual reality.

Research conducted by scientists from the University of Maryland shows that the use of VR goggles allows you to absorb as much as 90 percent. information, and learning by means of a computer – only 78 percent. (https://cmns.umd.edu/news-events/features/4155)

According to analysts from MarketsandMarkets, the value of the global virtual reality market in 2018 amounted to USD 7.9 billion. It is expected to rise to $ 55.7 by 2024. with an average annual growth rate of 33.5 percent.

liquid-crystal polarization holograms (LCPHs)—versatile, cost-effective elements that we believe marry the best that liquid-crystal (LC) photonics and holography have to offer.

a new class of near-eye displays that combines holographic optics and polarization-based optical folding—an approach that could be used to develop future VR sunglasses.
