Experience space and train travel in virtual reality with the University of Glasgow

Want to know what it feels like to travel in a spaceship at 285mph? Scientists from the School of Computing Science at University of Glasgow have designed a virtual reality experience that turns a 30mph car into a spaceship! Fight Vikings with swords and transform the inside of trains into movie scenes using motion amplifying VR.

Drop in and sign up on the day for both VR experiences. Please note the experiences are only suitable for age 10+.
