10 Ways VR Technology Can be Used Beyond Gaming
Automotive Manufacturing
From the design process to virtual prototypes, automobile manufacturers have been leveraging high-tech simulations for ages. With the Oculus Rift, Ford Motor Company has made virtual reality central to its automotive development. The virtual prototype allows designers and engineers from diverse departments to intimately scrutinize different elements, such as the engine or upholstery, and detect probable issues ahead of time.
Education
The automotive industry isn't just using virtual reality for design purposes; Toyota is also using Oculus headsets as part of its TeenDrive365 campaign, to edify teenagers and adults about unfocused driving. The immersive experiences provided by virtual-reality headsets can revolutionize education in all fields, the company said. By making field trips and simulations of complicated concepts accessible to people of all ages, virtual reality can make cognitive learning faster, more effective and efficient, Toyota officials said.
