Lifelong Learning Institute at Waubonsee Community College

Since reality has existed, people have thought of how to change it, argue with it, escape from it. Within the last decade this has become a reality. Today there are over 171 million people globally using Virtual Reality (VR) and/or Augmented Reality (AR) technology to augment or escape from reality. Over 2 sessions participants will discuss how VR/AR technology developed, the options available to us today, and where it could go in the future. We will discuss the impact this technology may have on individuals and on society.
