Augmented and Virtual Reality

Virtual Reality (VR) - computer technologies  generate realistic images, sounds and other sensations that replicate a real life scenes and  experiences. 
VR headsets such as Google Cardboard and plastic headsets can be used with a smartphone to view virtual experiences.

Creating Your Own AR Apps

This page has some tips and explains one way to do this but is for those with some coding knowledge.
Here are 3 tools students can use to create their own AR apps/experiences.
Metaverse - this is fairly easy to use, at least for the basics, works like pick-a-path adventures. Lots of scope to move on to more elaborate work involving more advanced coding. You can also create BreakoutEdu-type experiences.
