Augmented and virtual reality are engaging and dynamic teaching tools. Zubr works with higher education institutions and universities to develop XR experiential learning that brings complex concepts to life.

Step beyond textbooks and into new worlds – where students can explore impossible scenarios and gain deeper insights through hands-on interaction.

Our education partners usually have a concept they want to teach students through an immersive experience, whilst our museums and heritage sites want to visually show how a building or place has changed through time.

Whether it’s visualising the evolution of a historical site or simulating real-world challenges, we create high-quality, accurate 3D environments using photogrammetry, LiDAR, and terrain data. Our detailed virtual scenes, populated with lifelike characters and informative yet natural dialogue, ensure an experience that’s as educational as it is captivating. Our experiences can be deployed in AR, VR or through the web, meaning our accurate 3D visuals are made more accessible through a variety of digestible formats.

Passive learning is a thing of the past when you harness XR experiential education.

3D Scanning

Zubr’s 3D scanning expertise brings museum collections and historic artifacts into the digital realm, offering new ways to explore, preserve, and share cultural heritage. Using advanced photogrammetry and 3D scanning techniques, we create high-fidelity digital replicas that allow audiences to get up close with objects that might otherwise be out of reach. Check our Sketchfab to see some examples.
