Google has joined forces with virtual laboratory simulation company Labster to open 30 virtual reality labs on its Daydream virtual reality ( VR ) platform to offer science , technology , engineering and maths ( STEM ) students lab experience wherever they are . virtual VR simulations are already available to online students on Arizona State University ’s website in Biological Sciences . Other US universities and schools in Europe and North America are to be granted access . The labs will also allow students to carry out work not possible in a physical environment , for example manipulating molecules at molecular level or visiting an exoplanet .
Google has joined forces with virtual laboratory simulation company Labster to open 30 virtual reality labs on its Daydream virtual reality (VR) platform to give science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) students lab time wherever they are. Thirty VR simulations are already available to online students on Arizona State University’s BS in Biological Sciences. Other US universities and schools in Europe and North America are to be offered access. The labs will also allow students to carry out work not possible in a physical environment, for example manipulating DNA at molecular level or visiting an exoplanet.
