Webinar: Using eXtended Reality (XR) to for education

Summary:

UBeX lab aims to transform urban planning and real estate education through the integration of the cutting-edge eXtended Reality (XR) technologies. The project is a collaboration within the Urban Systems & Real Estate unit of department of Built Environment. It spans four courses and a graduation project. Through the lab, future engineers will learn next generation skills allowing them to integrate XR into participatory urban planning, urban experiments as well as modelling and prediction of citizens behaviour in various urban contexts.

The lab setup includes advanced hardware and software, with which XR environments and challenge-based assignments are created procedurally, so that they can be easily re-used and expanded by the students. Over three years, the lab will run multiple pilot projects, aiming to enrich education, boost student engagement, and provide teachers with innovative tools for course development.
