Digital Inclusion Festival
We are honored to be invited to the Digital Inclusion Festival 2019. This festival was organized by Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA).
More than 13,000 visitors came to the event. They hoped to learn how VR technology will serve to resolve today’s problems. The floor plan and event highlights noted some interesting activities. Most importantly, we were able to showcase our VR based app, ‘CyberWorld Adventures’. The development of the project was in collaboration with APSN.
The VR course ware was designed to educate students in special needs schools. APSN wanted to highlight the importance of cyber wellness to their students. Therefore, students get to learn how to protect themselves in a virtual world.
As a result, they will learn how handle situations in the cyber world. Some examples are how to set strong passwords or identify fake news. They will also learn to manage cyberbullies. At the end, they will learn the consequences of their digital footprint.
The project attracted positive media coverage. These range from local media companies such as Straits Times, Channel News Asia and many more. Read the full report about it here.
