The partnership includes an introduction to the knowledge metaverse for Pacific Adventist University students and faculty.
IRVINE, CA, February 1, 2022 – EON Reality, the global leader in Augmented and Virtual Reality-based knowledge and skills transfer for industry and education, announces a new partnership with Pacific Adventist University in Papua New Guinea to bring a campus-wide EON-XR delivery to the institution.
As a private institution launched in 1984, Pacific Adventist University utilizes cutting-edge technology like EON-XR to push itself to the forefront of universities located within the Pacific island nations. This open-minded and eager mentality makes the institution an appealing destination for international students as well as local ones, and also as an ideal fit for the latest EON-XR delivery and a promising contributor to the knowledge metaverse. Adding access to world-class XR solutions will enable them to bring their classrooms into the future of interactive teaching, regardless of subject, class size, or the variety of other factors that often impact schooling.
“It is always exciting to expand into a new portion of the world for us, as we have with an excellent partner in Pacific Adventist University” said Dan Lejerskar, Founder of EON Reality. “The university has been nothing short of an incredible host for EON-XR within the Pacific island nations, and I look forward to seeing how they are able to utilize our solutions and expand our possibilities with them in the future.”
With the new EON-XR delivery and welcome to the knowledge metaverse, Pacific Adventist University’s educators will be able to offer “hands-on” training to their students without the usual logistical restrictions in many forms of engineering and vocational studies. By utilizing the technology to teach immersive and interactive lessons using lifelike 3D models, they can provide the best possible academic experience for those on their campus as well as those studying remotely.
As EON Reality’s first partner within the Pacific island nations, Pacific Adventist University will not only be important users of EON-XR, but also likely contributors to EON Reality’s global network and the knowledge metaverse. In recent months, EON Reality has seen over 80 academic institutions become creators and curators for the growing knowledge metaverse — each creating and sharing experiences based on their own areas of expertise. The long-term hope is that the faculty and students of Pacific Adventist University will provide their own additions once they’ve adapted to the technology.
