WildEyes is a VR software that is designed to connect users to the great outdoors with virtual field trips. While nature-focused VR experiences are nothing new, this interactive project targets loves of the outdoors and gives them access to 360 degree videos of 59 national parks in the US.
For those unable to visit every park physically, this virtual field trip technology platform connects them to the great outdoors while teaching them about the what each park has to offer.
Whether learning about birds and animals that are native to each region or taking in the scenic views of each natural reserve, users will participate in a sensory experience that won't disappoint. WildEyes hopes to be accessible to the masses with the help of an Indiegogo campaign and is ultimately a tool that encourages Gen-Z consumers to interact with nature in a tech-conscious way.
