Open Call for XR_Unites Project

May 7, 2021

The second XR_Unites open call is addressed to interdisciplinary teams from Berlin’s independent cultural scene and creative industries that deal with the topic of embodiment and related socially relevant issues in the medium of virtual reality (VR), both formally and in terms of content. The EU funded project XR_Unites at HTW Berlin offers advice and support for agile development, the necessary software and a contingent of XR hardware for testing and presentation purposes. The XR_Unites expert board provides feedback on implementation. At the end of the joint development, there is a presentation co-organized by XR_Unites.
