đź’ˇ What was the goal?
The VRBLN Meetup aimed to showcase the potential of XR technologies while encouraging community engagement and networking. We especially wanted to reach people with little to no prior experience with XR and spark their curiosity.
The event was a major success, drawing a large, diverse audience and raising awareness about the opportunities, challenges, and creative possibilities of VR and AR. It also gave students, researchers, and developers a chance to exchange ideas, test new devices, and experiment with the latest immersive technologies.
Thanks to everyone who made it unforgettable! Stay tuned for more from the VRBLN! 🚀
