Working alongside University College, Oxford X-Reality Hub created an immersive mobile VR app which transports users from all corners of the globe inside the College\u2019s quadrangles and halls. This real-world solution gives users, including donors and prospective students, an inside glimpse of the College and of its emerging developments in North Oxford.<\/p>\n
