The Business Truth

AR/VR in education and training

Episode Summary

Will VR replace human interaction for good? To answer this, we chat with David Sime, CTO & Co-Director Riot Digital, about how VR has been replacing human interaction in some cases and aiding it in others. David explores how AR/VR are transforming the fields from telecommunications, education, marketing to others.

Show Notes:

  1. AR/VR has moved from a small number of people using very expensive headgear to a large number of people using affordable headwear for various tasks.
  2. Soft skills training is 4x more effective in a virtual reality setting than it is in a physical classroom setting.
  3. The pandemic has proved that virtual reality is critical in maintaining that human connection without any physical interaction.
  4. VR has a lot of potential in the renewables industry and companies are increasingly looking to reduce their carbon footprint.
