Landmark Entertainment, an American technological entertainment and experience company, has announced that it plans to release virtual reality theme parks called 'LIVE Centers.' These virtual parks, which will combine virtual and augmented reality into a new type of "mixed reality," are slated to open in malls across China by 2018.
What separates the LIVE Centers from other virtual reality experiences is that most VR experiences offer one concept -- say, a trip on a rocket ship or a deep sea dive -- whereas the LIVE Centers aim to provide a holistic experience. Using VR technology, the LIVE Centers will offer an entire interior theme park in virtual space, including a zoo, an aquarium, a digital art gallery, and more.
