Emerging Technologies Team

Our team develops Virtual and Augmented Reality experiences with the goal of fostering empathy and understanding. Through the use of 3D technologies, we aim to preserve communities and their artifacts, giving others the chance to see and learn more about them.

The VR Archives

Empathy Bytes is developing a Virtual Reality Museum where anyone can experience and learn about artifacts in the Georgia Tech Archives. Our team is able digitally preserve items such as an official 1996 Atlanta Olympics Torch, Buzz’s Converses from 1988, and a 1937 rat cap through the use of photogrammetry and hand-modeling techniques. We hope this VR experience allows the Georgia Tech Community to strengthen its connection to the school’s past and safely preserve these memories.
