Devika Accepted for the Oculus Start Program

Oculus has launched the Oculus Start Program to offload some of the costs in virtual reality (VR) development and support VR developers to imagine, explore, and create new experiences.

Devika successfully applied for the Oculus Start program with our in-house product, Devika Kolb. We were lucky enough to receive four virtual reality headsets and Oculus merchandise through our application.

Oculus Start Program Brings Virtual Reality to Schools

With access to the Oculus hardware, we are developing the next scenario for Devika Kolb. Access to multiple headsets is providing us with enough resources to test Kolb in-house and showcase the Kolb experience to local schools to introduce a new, immersive element to the classroom.

Oculus Start Program Brings Devika Evenness to The Disability Trust

In collaboration with The Disability Trust, we’ve set up the Quest in the Mittagong office to provide residents with access to the Evenness Virtual Reality Sensory Space.

Through 6 degrees of freedom technology, users have access to a more supportive environment to learn sensory skills and regulate anxiety.

Six Degrees of Freedom in Virtual Reality

The Oculus Rift provides 6 degrees of freedom, creating a more immersive and life-like experience by enabling the user to move, twist, and turn in any direction.

We’ve also enjoyed testing out the Oculus Quest, which has taken virtual reality to a new level of immersion through the wireless feature. With internal senses built into the headset, our partners are testing and trialing VR with room-scale tracking, making for a more realistic experience.

Thank you, Oculus, for providing hardware and helping us to create virtual reality experiences.
