Partner Workshop

As the project AR/VR.nrw nears the end of its funding period we want to showcase the results of our work. Visit us at our workshop in Sankt Augustin or join online to see what Figments.nrw is capable to do and learn how you can use our authoring tools to create interactive virtual reality content yourself.

Workshop and Presentation

While the development work is currently running at full speed, evaluations are taking place in parallel. Luckily for us, a community is forming incorporating not only universities in NRW but in all of germany as well. From our associated partners that were able to work with us until now, we receive a lot of positive feedback and input for our development work. This input, however, also presents us with challenges, which are accompanied by expectations for results and ideas that are on the one hand extremely interesting, but on the other hand and in certain aspects go far beyond our project (e.g., cooperative content development in real time, research on interactions, learning analytics, research collaborations in VR).

We would like to take this feedback as an opportunity to hold a public workshop with our associated partners and everyone interested in the development of Figments.nrw. With this workshop we aim to present the current state of development, discuss future developments and give you a timeline and information for the public release of Figments.nrw.
