Academia & Digital teaching
Transform your classroom with immersive technology
At Zubr, we help academics and universities transform traditional teaching through AR for higher education, VR training simulations, and more. From stepping inside historic events to safely practicing high-stakes scenarios, our immersive tools spark curiosity, boost knowledge retention, and support active learning.
Whether it’s educational AR development, such as AR loan boxes offering remote access to rare collections or virtual classroom experiences for hands-on training, our curriculum-aligned solutions are intuitive, reliable and built for real-world teaching – so educators can focus on teaching whilst students take control of their learning.

Academic collaboration and custom content
We collaborate with institutions to deliver bespoke immersive content that supports both teaching and research, ensuring it’s engaging, inclusive, and easy to implement. With extensive experience in academic collaboration, we tailor every project to align with your institution’s unique goals.
Our immersive solutions are designed to support scalable, inclusive learning and to spark student-led inquiry. By transforming complex research into interactive media, we make abstract concepts and data-driven insights more tangible. We make the invisible visible – whether that means visualising cellular processes at a microscopic scale or exploring ancient cities through reconstructed environments.
Each project is delivered with comprehensive documentation and ongoing support, ensuring your teams can confidently implement, manage, and adapt the virtual classroom experiences across a range of teaching and research contexts.
Inclusive learning by design
Accessibility is central to everything we create. We collaborate with academic staff, students, and support services to design immersive content that is intuitive, inclusive, and valuable for all learners – regardless of ability, location, or background.
From the earliest planning stages, we prioritise inclusive design. We build in adaptable features, such as captions and alternative interaction modes, to meet a range of access needs. This ensures our experiences are not only easy to use but genuinely welcoming and effective for all learners.
Whether you’re looking to bring complex research to life or provide immersive tools that support independent, self-paced learning, we’ll help you make your content more accessible, engaging and impactful.
