The Internet of Things Expo (ioTx), being held in Dubai, is showcasing some of the latest innovations in virtual and augmented reality solutions.

The event is running concurrently with the 4th Gulf Information Security Conference and Expo (GISEC) at Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) until Tuesday.

Here are some of the top Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality experiences on display at ioTx’s VRAR Zone – held in in collaboration between DWTC and the VARA Association:

The company even created a customised and interactive VR game for the show, where players defend the Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai area from bots.

Hyperloop TT – With the Hyperloop TT stand at ioTx providing a sneak-peak at the future of the high-speed Hyperloop train – a truly novel mass transport solution – visitors experienced an interactive via VR simulation of a true-to-life Hyperloop TT journey.

PearlQuest – Eager to enhance customer experience, PearlQuest is showcasing high-quality virtual and augmented digital interactive technologies, including interactive games, web development solutions and touch screen interfaces for kiosks. One of the firm’s applications allows users to take a picture of a real estate project and an augmented reality scale model of the project emerges, outlining dimensions of a property both inside and out, so buyers can visualise exactly what they are getting for their money.

Giga Works – Visitors to the stand of this Virtual Reality film studio, which is offering 360º capture, virtual reality experience, and customised GigaBox cardboards, were provided the opportunity to take a seat in a virtual recreation of the famous Formula Rossa rollercoaster – the world’s fastest rollercoaster – at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi.
