What the AR & VR Lab actually is?

Virtual Reality fully replaces the visual field — a headset drops a student inside a cell, the ocean floor, or the International Space Station. Augmented Reality overlays digital models onto the real desk in front of them using a tablet or AR glasses. Run together, the lab lets a biology diagram become a walkable heart chamber and a history chapter become a walkable historical street, without ever leaving the classroom.

about-image
01.
Curriculum-mapped, not generic

Content modules are tagged to the exact NCERT/CBSE chapter they support, so a teacher can slot a session into a term plan.

02.
AR for daily use, VR for depth

Tablet-based AR is used for quick in-class overlays; the full headset experience is reserved for immersive, longer sessions.

03.
Teacher authoring tools

Teachers can pin their own 3D models and annotations onto AR markers instead of only using pre-built content.

04.
Comfort & safety by design

Age-appropriate headset sizing, session-length limits and supervised-use protocols built into the rollout.

Curriculum & Grade Roadmap

A continuous pathway, not one-off

Modules build on each other year over year so a student's grade-10 session assumes and extends what they built in grade-6, rather than repeating fundamentals.
