I wish there could've been a one-and-one facetime for the "final project" or just a professional feedback for that last paper that we all did. Otherwise, overall a good course to take for beginners.
por NCJan 28, 2018
Very good overview of theory of VR and a great start to deepen the knowledge. The course encourages you to seek out additional information and prompts you to think of applications of the technology.
por CSDec 17, 2017
This course was very informative. I also found it challenging, which is a good thing. I was introduced to aspects of VR that had not considered, such as the psychological aspects.
por ICJun 14, 2018
Being a non-techie, I find this course quite easy to understand. The required readings are academic papers and I took some time to understand them but it is good quality readings.
por SAJun 11, 2018
This is best VR introduction course. I learned a lot of about VR apps, hardware, VR illusions and many more. Teachers are great in explanation of the content.

Decent info - lots of grammatical/spelling errors in the transcripts.\n\nSome of the question on the test were confusing with the way they were asked.
por SLMar 24, 2018
Great foundational course. Excellent resources and would definitely recommend to anyone interested in learning about the exciting world of VR.
por TGOct 14, 2018
I learned lots of fundamental concepts in VR such as types of illusions and how to achieve them, immersion, hardware for VR and applications.
por CPDec 21, 2017
Great class but please focus on the financial and business side more. The state of the industry, instead of the minutiae of the aesthetics.
por CSJun 5, 2018
