The NUILab in 2023

In 2023, the NUILab is not only a group of students with a common interest but a team striving to build a solid foundation for the growth of the future. With work in AR, VR, and Mixed Reality this team has big goals and the funding to support it. 

When the NUILab set out for the 2023 season their vision included forest bathing access growth, a desire for more design to AR integration, and pushing the boundaries of what we know and understand as interaction with XR devices.
