| Notes |
The technologies and methods of yesterday have not solved the problems we have in the Nigerian education system. These problems include a lack of access to quality education, overpopulation in schools and an unacceptable number of out of school children (13.2 million, the highest for any country).
Continuing to employ traditional means will lead to the same results; there will never be enough money allocated in the budget, qualified teachers or places in schools for the population we have.
Emerging technologies like Virtual Reality allow us to leapfrog these problems and offer the hope of more affordable, scalable and better quality education.
VR allows people to immersively experience anything imaginable. If you can create VR content, you can create any world or experience and place your user in it. We at Imisi 3D are working across multiple sectors, driving engagement and adoption, and creating local XR solutions.
We also believe that contributions from the open source community will accelerate the development of our solution and increase access. |
