Bringing VR into the workplace (Talk + Demos)

The Event

The Seattle VR Meetup is trying something new this time around: a talk!

To fulfill our mission of knowledge-sharing, we've invited a VR professional to give a 20-minute talk on how they've adopted VR into their company.

We'll follow up with an audience Q&A, and then we'll have time to try VR demos and catch up with one another!

Speakers:

Simon Manning (Architectural VR Specialist)

Simon spent his formative years learning to make. From lashing together draw bridges in Boy Scouts, to building 3d printers in college, he’s always been inspired by the act of creation. Once he discovered VR things seemed to click. He began to combine his passion for making with his enthusiasm about a creative future enabled by technology. Now he spends his time tinkering with the laws of physics in his mixed reality studio at work or digitally sculpting virtual components for 3d printing.
