The event will run from 9 am – 5 pm and will offer attendees opportunities to hear keynote speaker Adam Sulzdorf-Liszkiewicz listen to presentations by nine speakers from various departments at MSU and see new tech demos presented by vendors from Apple, IglooVision (creators of the 360 Room in the MSU Libraries Digital Scholarship Lab), the Learning Assessment Center, Games for Entertainment and Learning Lab, and Proquest VR and Healthcare Teams. On Wednesday, February 12, they will host an XR Symposium in the Green Room (4 West) at the Main Library to engage and educate scholars, practitioners, educators, technologists, and students spark conversations about how technologies that combine perceptions of physical and digital realities can enable new insights and experiences and foster new collaborations and innovations throughout the MSU community. MSU Libraries faculty and staff are working with others on campus to help the MSU community explore how eXtended Reality (XR) can serve students in the classroom and in our wider culture.
For a time, it seemed immersive technologies were the stuff of sci-fi games and movies, but leaders at MSU Libraries are helping more people understand these technologies are not just for entertainment but also for education, medicine, engineering, and conservation.
