Mattias Wallergård, Virtual Reality Researcher at LTH, Lund University.
Are we ready for the blue pill?
Virtual Reality is sometimes described as an “experience machine”. What will we be able to do with this machine? How far can we take it? Are we prepared for the effects it may have on our lives and the world we live in?
Mattias Wallergård has worked with VR and AR research for the last 20 years with a special focus on human-centred design of virtual environments for health and education. Part of his job is to develop the VR/AR infrastructure and education at Lund university, which includes Sweden’s first VR/AR master programme starting autumn of 2021.
