Hey everyone,

Gamescom is getting closer and we want to again use this opportunity  to connect the VR community from all around the world. The event is especially meant for active members of the VR community, developers, artist, filmmakers, journalists and entrepreneus. The maximum number of participants is 100 so don’t hesitate to RSVP! 

After a  1 hour-long official part featuring some special guests (see below) you will have a lot of time to try out some of the latest VR demos and prototypes and of course socialize with awesome VR people!

UITSPRAAK OVER VR

"To begin with, Virtual Reality is a part of computer science and it represents a new approach to computer science. Instead of treating the computer as a box that's out there that is supposed to accomplish something, you put a human being in the center and say, "Let's look at the human being closely. Let's see how people perceive the world or how they act. Let's design a computer to fit very closely around them, like a glove, you might say. Let's match up the technology to exactly what people are good at.""
