“By changing how we experience our environment, the best of AR and VR technologies also prompt growth of other verticals such as tourism and education.”
He added: “These pioneering technologies are currently implemented by the SCTA in 25 museums in Saudi Arabia. Midwan’s work in Jeddah’s UNESCO World Heritage site is one-of-a-kind.”
