ARC-XR Testimonials
Using ARC-XR at the University of Glasgow allowed me to access the XR equipment and lab space for my research. It was also beneficial to have specialised personnel to help with troubleshooting and research gathering. Ultimately, coming to this lab empowered me to conduct an immediate and efficient data collection for my research!”
- Kirsten Cowan, University of Edinburgh
The XR lab has been invaluable to my PhD and has made conducting research so much easier!
- Thomas Goodge, Computing Science, University of Glasgow
The ARC-XR has been fantastic for our research. The large, purpose built space allows us to conduct research somewhere that participants are able to easily find, are comfortable in, and can use the maximum potential of XR tools. We can trust that the equipment is being maintained and expert help is available if we need it.
