Small innovative enterprise of Yaroslav-the-Wise Novgorod State University "Magcom" launched the project "Virtual Reality Platform for cultural and historical centers of small towns". It should be reminded that this project was supported by the Innovation Promotion Fund within the framework of the "Center of Youth Innovation Creativity-IV" competition.

The main objective of the project is to create a virtual reality platform for cultural and historical monuments of small Russian towns by using the example of the water tower in Staraya Russa. 

The project involves familiarizing the CYIC participants with virtual reality technology, water tower virtualization software development and demonstration of the program with purchased equipment. The project will conclude with recommendations for its promotion to the tourism market as a new opportunity to inform people about historic sights and attractions of small towns.

Creating virtual reality is a complex and tedious work, which is carried out by talented designers, engineers and programmers. This project opens the door to a new and unexplored world, and now any student of NovSU can join in creating virtual reality. If you want to take part in the project as a designer or a technical equipment engineer, please, send an email to roman.petrov@novsu.ru
