The Educational Virtual Environment- (EVE) Lab at the American University in Cairo, offers students the opportunity to engage with emerging technologies and explore the digital future.
The (EVE) Lab at AUC is a joint lab between the mechanical engineering department and the architecture department. The concept of the metaverse, a virtual reality space where people can interact and collaborate regardless of their geographical location, is a key focus of the Lab at AUC. The Lab at AUC provides numerous benefits for both faculty members and students. More on Educational Virtual Environment (EVE) Lab
For students, the Lab offers a unique opportunity to engage with emerging technologies and gain practical experience in their respective fields. By using virtual reality, students can visualize complex concepts, detect design flaws, and improve their problem-solving skills and experience the metaverse firsthand and explore its potential applications.
Faculty members can use the immersive nature of virtual environments to enhance their teaching methods and provide a better understanding and visualization of architectural space and form. The lab's facilities enable professors to dive into aspects of scale, proportion, spatial experience, design development, and details that would have been challenging to represent.
