Virtual Reality Fundamentals

Virtual reality, or VR, is a simulated three-dimensional (3D) environment that lets users explore and interact with a virtual surrounding in a way that approximates reality, as it's perceived through the users' senses. In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn the basics of Virtual Reality and how to create a VR application..

Virtual Reality corporate training and certification oriented remote program aims to upskill you with VR Development, Scripting and Programming, 3D Model Integration, User Interaction Design, Project Deployment

Currently due to Covid19 outbreak, the course is available remote and however it can also be accessed online via your nearby Prog360 centre based on local availability.
