VR Safari is designed to give businesses creative insight and hands-on experience with some of the world’s most cutting-edge immersive technology.
At its heart, it’s about combining the intellectual and corporate value of facilitated talks with the no-nonsense tangible experience of practical demos. And with our expert partners in VR/AR/MR industries, our clients are guaranteed to experience an up-to-date masterclass in the creative and commercial capabilities of immersive tech.
It’s a special kind of digital expedition – a guided whistlestop tour through the HTC Vive, the Virtuali-Tee app, Microsoft’s HoloLens, and Gear VR. Just think of us as the technological David Attenborough.

If you have content or technology that you’d like to be included in the VR Safari, please let us know. We would love to discuss this with you!
If you’re an expert in the field and are interested in speaking at our workshops, please get in touch. All of our speaking opportunities are paid gigs and we’d be delighted to partner with you.
We’re platform agnostic. With all of its potential, we don’t believe VR should be limited by what kind of headset it’s viewed on.
That’s why we use VR Safari to showcase a variety of wearables and devices across virtual, augmented, and mixed realities, and take the time to explore the differences between them.
Virtual Reality – HTC Vive
The HTC is arguably the most advanced virtual reality headset currently on the market. Using a mix of bluetooth and laser tracking technology the headset enables you to walk around in a virtual space of to 5x5m. Users are able to interact with devices, move objects, and complete a whole range of tasks using the intuitive controllers.
The Virtuali-Tee is an app designed to teach its audience about the human anatomy in augmented reality. Using a skeleton shaped marker, users can explore the human body projected onto a t-shirt. When paired with Google Cardboard or GearVR, the user can even go ‘fully virtual’ and experience a 360 view from inside the human body.
The HoloLens is Microsoft’s flagship immersive technology device. Using hologram technology, the headset is able to project interactive holograms into the room around you.
360 video is one of the most accessible forms of VR on the market, allowing the user to explore a video of an environment in full 360 degrees. It’s not as versatile as other forms of VR as it doesn’t support movement through a space, but its simplicity is also its strength. This kind of VR experience is perfect for providing a powerful and thought-provoking snapshot of a place, event, or narrative.
