Pictures VR

Pictures VR offers its users a unique artistic experience – using VR headsets and gesture controls to immerse them in paintings, sound and colour. During a virtual tour, players step into various works of art which – once you’ve stepped beyond their frames – are far more than just brushstrokes of colour on canvas. Rather, accompanied by atmospheric classical music, they unfold into explorable settings that reveal artistic scenes and recount adventures – sometimes calm, sometimes eerie – in short episodes.

Pictures VR impresses across the board as a holistic experience – the application is the perfect combination of VR technology and an aesthetic learning environment, demonstrating the potential that lies dormant in interactive media: creating experience-based, immersive learning approaches that would otherwise be difficult to achieve in any depth with traditional teaching and learning media.
