About This Exhibit

This exhibit of 360-degree video virtual reality (VR) experiences, created by Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management students at NC State, allows you to virtually visit recreation and leisure destinations around the state of North Carolina. You'll be able to experience these works in an interactive kiosk using the web platform WondaVR and also learn about the behind-the-scenes work that went into creating them (using cameras available for checkout at the Libraries).

This project is continually updated and a collaboration between students in the course PRT 152 Introduction to Parks, Recreation, Tourism and Event Management, led by Professor Nathan Williams and NC State's DELTA (Distance Education and Learning Technology Applications) group.
