Craig Potterton Creative Director at New Realities Lab Yorkshire and the Humber Crafting Immersive Magic: Animator extraordinaire on a mission to turn pixels into engaging immersive content.

On this DCMS and Welsh Gov funded project I served as both product design/developer and lead for the Wales 5g unlocked immersive space. I spearheaded the project from its initial conception through to deployment and launch.

Here are the press launch specifics:

*Technology like 5G could help provide new opportunities for education in rural areas of Wales, according to a new trial launched today.

5G Wales Unlocked is the innovation project behind the new immersive 360-degree classroom in Ebbw Vale, just one of several trials demonstrating how ultrafast technology like 5G could transform rural communities, from powering tech innovations in agriculture, to improving rural transport and education and bolstering the tourism industry.

Using a localised 5G network provided by BT as one of the project partners, the classroom uses the high-speed connectivity to project inspiring and educational video content onto all four walls in a 360-degree format, providing an immersive experience.
