性奴调教鈥檚 VR Room is one of the first spaces of its kind in the St. Louis area, is the first public VR space on campus and will provide students, faculty and staff with opportunities to explore the academic and recreational aspects of virtual reality technology.

Spurred by student interest and faculty research, the SGA Technology Committee, Information Technology Services (ITS) and the University Libraries partnered to bring the technology to campus and to develop a space for virtual reality exploration.

鈥淭he new Virtual Reality room not only offers students an opportunity for recreation, but also gives faculty an opportunity for augmented virtual reality learning by using the equipment,鈥� sophomore Michael Cleary, chair of the SGA Technology Committee, said.

The room features an HTC Vive Pro headset and hand controllers, a computer with several VR programs and a large-screen monitor that displays what the headset user is seeing in real time. ITS, the SGA and University Libraries are exploring adding more virtual reality technologies to the space in the future.

鈥淚TS looks forward to opportunities like this to collaborate with our students and Library partners to create innovative spaces that give our students, faculty, and staff access to new and cutting edge technologies,鈥� Kyle Collins, assistant vice president for technology transformation, said. 鈥淪uccessful projects like these raise 性奴调教鈥檚 reputation as a leader in innovation and build excitement about the possibilities for the impact of technology to support the academic, research and clinical missions of the University.鈥�
