Our computer science and gaming students have full access to the University's CAVE (Centre for Augmented and Virtual Reality environments), a treasure trove of specialist equipment. Using tools such as: virtual reality headsets and specialist equipment that tracks eye movements and brain activity, our students have the freedom to invent, create and revolutionise gaming.
This state-of-the-art technology enables our students to monitor their users' levels of enjoyment throughout the game and the opportunity to tailor their creation accordingly. This Lab has also helped computing students work closely and collaborate with design students, promoting interdisciplinary work and successful partnerships, creating innovative products at the forefront of technology.
