Overview and live demo of "Hyped+Escape", a platform to potentially replace Hyperscape that Meta killed.
Lukasz Karluk: Spatial Intelligence
Lukasz will be back sharing some of his recent experiences with engaging with spaces through AR and AI.
Gordon Burnett: How Cultural Compass uses VR to build empathy with patient journeys in the health system
Join Gordon Burnett (Design Lead, Health Prototyping, eHealth NSW) as he takes us through the journey of creating Cultural Compass, an immersive video training module aimed at improving the experience of culturally and linguistically diverse patients.
We'll look at how the team connected with recently arrived refugees and a diverse range of clinicians and patients to develop the story and script. We'll also look at the technical side with production, editing and preparation for a range of VR experiences and headsets.
There were many lessons along the way and we look forward to sharing the Cultural Compass story with you all!
