Exploring the Metaverse: A Virtual Reality Adventure for the X edition
Today our Service Design students completed the second module on Emerging Technologies. Students explored the world of Virtual Reality (VR) & Metaverse, taught by AI & Metaverse Consultant, Lucio Pascarelli. Through a combination of lectures and hands-on experience, students gained an understanding of the history and evolution of VR and the Metaverse, the service components that underpin it, and the challenges and opportunities that arise.
During the interactive activities with VR headsets, students had hands-on experience with current Metaverse applications and services, such as Meta Horizon Workrooms, allowing them to visualize the potential impact of this emerging technology on the industry. The module culminated in group discussions and brainstorming sessions on potential Metaverse services, giving students the opportunity to share their insights and thoughts.
Overall, the VR & Metaverse module provided students with a comprehensive understanding of this technology as well as its potential for social and economic transformation.
