On January 14, the Smart Agriculture VR (Virtual Reality) produced by MARI welcomed its first group of experiencers. The experience was divided into three main sessions: pre-experience training, VR experience and feedback. The event strictly adhered to the regulations related to epidemic prevention and control.

Before the experience begins, staff provided training to the experience participants. The training includes the use of VR glasses, precautions and the process of the experience.

After disinfecting and cleaning their hands, participants entered the laboratory where staff first demonstrated how to properly wear the VR glasses and operate the handles. Afterwards, disposable hygienic eye masks were distributed to the experiencers to assist them in wearing and operating them.

Everyone was excited to put on their VR glasses and enter the VR world to start the experience.

After the experience, Mr. Hang Xiong had an in-depth exchange with the experiencers about their experiences. Everyone spoke freely and made many valuable suggestions on the design and application of VR scenes, the construction of future VR labs and the flow of activities. We believe that as we continue to improve our design solutions, the smart agriculture VR scenes will become more mature.

On the evening of January 17, the last group of experiencers in the laboratory left. The teachers and students who were responsible for organizing this activity made a summary of this experience activity, and had a profound discussion on how to improve the VR scene, laboratory construction and activity planning. And finally formed a complete modification description and operation specification for laboratory construction.
