TriPointLabs : Demo
Our cloud-based platform provides the means to close the learning gap. We provide fully immersive VR/AR teaching realms that allow instructors to lead a group of students on-site or remotely (regardless of device — phone/tablet/web/VR/AR).
Students using a tablet in India, for example, can follow along with a Stanford professor who may be demonstrating a lesson in VR. No competitors accommodate devices in this way.

Jay Truesdale — Demo
Jay will present the final project for his Cinematography and Advanced Editing Classes. His class is required to attend and show their work. Each student will bring a mobile device and viewer, fully charged and preloaded with their section of the project. Jay told his class that they will have to interact with actual humans to show off and explain their work. The pressure has been great. It’s really forged the classes.
