Catch on the latest updates and insights about the Assemblr ecosystem, immersive technology, and EdTech industry—all in one site.
If we’re talking about immersive technology, it’s not only about augmented reality (AR); virtual reality (VR) is not less important as well.
Every day, we know there are more and more industries that utilize VR experiences to boost their productivity. And we know that different industries will produce different utilizations as well.
So, how can you utilize AR for different industries? Let’s find out below!
The training industry has been utilizing VR experiences—especially for manufacturing industries or any industries related to machines.
Since you will train new employees, it must be hard to operate machines for the first time ever. And for several machines, it can be hazardous when your new employees jump in to operate the machines.
With VR, it is much, much easier.
They can use VR headsets and simulate how the machines work right away—as if everything was real. It can level up their confidence—and the most important thing is, it’s very flexible since you don’t have to be under one room operating the machines.
It can be conducted anywhere, be it in your meeting room, hall, or any working spaces.
It’s supported with a finding from one research—saying that people can learn new skills 4 times faster when they use VR experiences.

For automotive designers and engineers, VR can help them show their digital prototype models before actually assembling the real prototypes—which are quite expensive, for sure.
Not to mention, the pandemic era has become a complex stuff for them. And VR can be the right solution for them to preview and share feedback regarding the designs and machines.
Aside from being cheaper and more efficient—as you don’t have to build prototypes over and over, this also pushes a global working environment which empowers everyone to discuss virtually yet in life-like experiences.
When doctors practice their operating skills, sometimes, it’s still hard for them to perform since it’s quite risky to try right away.
VR can be really helpful for them to practice and simulate the way before actually operating on a real patient.
With VR, there’s a virtual body that students or young doctors can operate right away with a hands-on experience.
Even more, VR can also be used for therapy to help heal pain for adults. Doctors can use a platform namely EaseVRx, which incorporates cognitive-behavioral therapy. This helps patients become more relaxed, shifting focus attention, so it will reduce their pain.
In the future, as the metaverse keeps on developing, the way people shop their clothes will be different. What used to be going out for shopping, later can be shifted with the existing VR on metaverse. It’s the virtual try-on that will be booming.
Not only benefiting the customers, it will also benefit you as the business owner. There’s no need to create products massively since it will produce clothing waste and more cost-effective.
Some fashion companies have been utilizing VR in the first place. Take Ralph Lauren and Gucci that create virtual shops that highlight the environments. Therefore, visitors can take a look and check out their products virtually.

How we learn becomes much more interesting as it can be made more immersive and will be brought into a virtual world—simply with VR experiences.
With additional platforms, children can learn in a virtual environment, supporting an immersive learning experience without having to go out and go global from home.
You can also use digital twin, which combines digital classrooms with the physical world that consists of other students virtually.
You can even invite your children to travel around the world virtually—yet immersively. For example, traveling abroad and showing the most popular icons and landmarks.
So, those are a few VR utilizations for different industries. Did you get enlightened? Make sure to try it out for your brand—and FYI, Assemblr can also help you realize your VR ideas.
