VIRTUAL REALITY SOLUTIONS

Virtual reality has the marketing world abuzz, as tech companies begin the rollout of affordable, mass-marketed virtual reality headsets.

Google Cardboard, a VR headset that works in conjunction with a user’s smartphone, is already on the market, and Facebook-owned Oculus is set to release the much hyped Rift headset in 2016.

Of course, gaming is a major component of the emergent virtual reality market–the Rift will be compatible with Xbox technology, and Sony also released a Playstation-compatible headset. However, companies also are exploring other virtual reality applications.


COLLEGE RECRUITMENT VR SOLUTIONS

Colleges and universities have been major adopters of virtual reality solutions, using the technology to create campus virtual tours aimed at recruiting prospective students.

Some universities have equipped their recruitment teams with virtual reality headsets to share the tours with potential students at college fairs.

The Savannah College of Art and Design took it a step further: The school mailed 5,000 cardboard headsets, along with instructions to its virtual tour, to students who had been accepted to the school but had not yet enrolled.

College-bound students also can take their own virtual reality tours via the YouVisit app, or through individual university websites


TOURISM VIRTUAL REALITY SOLUTIONS

The tourism industry has been another quick adopter of virtual reality solutions as a way to attract tourist and help travelers plan their vacations.

The company has also mailed over 5,000 cardboard headsets to potential customers.

Recently, Destination British Columbia created a VR experience called “The Wild Within,” which generated 65 million media impressions.

New York City brokerages likes Anchor Associates are placing virtual reality experiences on their listings and providing clients with inexpensive Google Cardboard headsets.

Other companies are enlisting virtual reality to expose people to new experiences.

In an effort to get more people excited about outdoor adventures, the North Face store in Manhattan allows customers to use virtual reality to base jump, hike and rock climb.

Exercise company Zumba released a virtual-reality experience of one of its classes, both from the perspective of an instructor and a class participant.
