Virtual reality (VR) technology is positioned to play a major part of the multimedia experience going into the future, so the conceptual 'Soar' VR kit identifies how we could introduce it to kids in the classroom as soon as possible.
Designed by Choi Jaewan, the system consist of a dock with a VR headset along with two controllers that are all intended to be nested together when not in use. This works to keep everything together for users in the classroom to eliminate the occurrence of a component being lost or requiring separate pieces.
The conceptual 'Soar' VR kit helps to further immerse users in the digital experience and eliminates the need for traditional tablets or headsets. The kit is the winner of the 2018 Red Dot Design Concept Award.
