virtual reality makkah
mission
One day people might be able to visit Makkah from their home. How, you ask? Through virtual reality of course! Virtual reality is a tool to allow you to see and imagine recreations of entirely different worlds and places, real or not, right in front of you.
Someone who can't travel to Saudi Arabia might not be able to visit, but with virtual reality they can put on some goggles and experience being there and imagining what it is like to perform Hajj! Your task is to think about virtual reality and what other uses it could have beyond entertainment.
