Visitors at the Korea Sale Festa in Seoul were able to strap on some VR headgear on Thursday and virtual shop til they virtual dropped. Major retailers such as LG, E-Mart and Hyundai took part, allowing consumers to snap up some discount goods in a virtual shopping mall. The project, run by Skonec Entertainment, aims to spread the idea of VR shopping. Creators even say that shops tailored for individual consumers based on shopping data are a distinct possibility in the future.
As virtual reality tech develops, we are discovering new uses for VR every day. Any mechanic will tell you how many parts any vehicle can have, and how it's not always clear what repairs are needed to fix an issue. The Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics Research displayed its VR solution for car repairs, which allows users to see a full 3D model of all the parts a car can have, at the 2017 CeBIT digital expo in Hanover on Sunday, . The system is designed specifically for mechanics, but may soon be available commercially. The technology can be used to show a mechanic where he has to look for repairs inside a car or where to install the corresponding part, among other tasks. Held annually in Hanover, CeBIT is one of the world's largest tech trade fairs and will go on until March 24.
