Inside the sphere: How Eight360 is revolutionising virtual training and immersive simulation
Virtual reality has long pushed the boundaries of simulation, but New Zealand’s Eight360 has taken immersion to an entirely new orbit. Its groundbreaking NOVA platform – a fully motion-controlled, transparent sphere – delivers true physical sensation and haptic feedback for users navigating complex virtual environments for NZ Defense Force. Now, that same technology is being deployed by Texas A&M University’s ASTRO Lab, where researchers are developing ultra high-fidelity, physically accurate simulations of the Moon and Mars.
