Immersive Reality Supporting Individual Socio-Symbolic Work: Applications on ESG Projects

The use of immersive reality is potentially broad, and valuable effects are being explored, such as the user’s engagement and emotional attachment to relevant subjects. Despite reported negative issues, such as cybersickness, VR experiences can be combined with designed storytelling on environmental and socially contested issues to develop social empathy. In this seminar, Prof. Aquino will present a review of this subject and discuss potential applications.
