VRlandia is a multi-room lab space, a collection of cutting-edge VR/AR/XR equipment, and most importantly a community of researchers that focus on XR projects. As a community we seek to research the next frontier of XR related developments and help students do the same.
VRlandia is a place for all Georgia Tech students regardless of year, major, or experience. All are allowed to utilize the space and its resources, free of charge (subject to availability).
VRlandia is housed in, and hosted by, the GT School of Psychology. There are powerful computers, high-end VR/AR headsets, a 360-degree OMNI treadmill, tracked spaces, several driving simulators, and all kinds of associated research gear (cameras, audio equipment, etc., etc.).
A wide variety of projects are underway, ranging from building “traditional” VR environments, to creating a digital twin of the Psychology Building, to the future of work in VR, to AR wayfinding, to studies of autonomous driving, training in VR, and much much more.
