University of Virginia (UVA) harnesses virtual reality (VR) to unlock the mysteries of advanced technology
UVA's Virtual Lab® uses 3D animation to disassemble and examine complex instrumentation such as atomic force microscopes and scanning tunneling microscopes.
Over 50 educational VR animations can be viewed (or podcast) at the UVA Virtual Lab©: virlab.virginia.edu
