  1. VR Lab Setup at Sub-Regional Science Centre Empowering Learning Through Immersive Technology

  2. Introduction The world is evolving with rapid technological advancement. Virtual Reality (VR) is transforming the way we learn, explore, and experience. Sub-Regional Science Centres play a vital role in science communication and education. Introducing the VR Lab to enhance interactive learning.There are already many VR lab setups out there, including one located at the Centre in Karwar.

  3. Objective of the VR Lab Brings abstract concepts to life. Encourages experiential learning. Safe simulation of hazardous or expensive experiments. Enhances student engagement and retention. Bridges the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge.

  4. Lab Setup Overview Space Required: ~300-500 sq. ft. VR Stations: 6–10 with headsets, controllers, and seating. Content Library: Science topics including Physics, Biology, Astronomy, Chemistry, and Earth Science. Support Systems: Ventilation, flooring, safety signage, instructor station. Duration per session: 10–15 minutes per module.

  5. Hardware & Software Components Hardware: VR Headsets (e.g., Meta Quest, HTC Vive, Pico) High-performance computers (if tethered setup) Ergonomic chairs, safety flooring Software: Educational VR modules from trusted providers (like FotonVR) Easy-to-navigate interfaces for instructors and students Multi-language support (if applicable)

  6. VR Lab Learning Modules Examples of Available Content: Biology: Human Anatomy, Cell Structure Physics: Laws of Motion, Electricity Astronomy: Solar System, Space Exploration Chemistry: Chemical Reactions, Molecules Earth Science: Volcanoes, Natural Disasters

  7. Benefits for Students Immersive and engaging learning experience Increases knowledge retention and understanding Boosts interest in science and technology Encourages curiosity and experimentation Prepares students for future tech-enabled careers

  8. Operational Guidelines Pre-booked sessions for schools and individuals Instructor-led VR experiences Regular updates and maintenance of devices Hygiene protocols for headset use Safety instructions before each session
