The virtual reality chamber allows students to learn by participating in realistic medical scenarios. With six projectors displaying a continuous 360 degree image of an accident scene or a hospital room, students are able to learn in a more kinaesthetic way that replicates real-life situations.
This complements the adjacent Simulation Facility, which recreates hospital suites with cutting-edge technology and life-like manikins that enable students to practise clinical scenarios.
