The changing nature of education in the aftermath of the Covid 19 pandemic has given rise to unforeseen opportunities. With students adapting to digital schooling and firms embracing work-from-home strategies, the delivery of education has also evolved. More than delivering content in a traditional teacher to student manner, the need of the hour is for education to incorporate cutting-edge immersive technology.
