Extended Reality

Support our XR initiative. Below is a list of options that your gift can provide for our students:

• A gift of $25 will allow us to purchase a sustainably sourced and Unity College branded Virtual Reality cardboard kit to use the power of a smartphone to transport a student to explore places and engage with experiences in 360-degree immersive environments.
• For a class of 15 students, a gift between $50 and $100 per student will help us purchase a license for existing XR software that will allow students to build and showcase their ideas in 3D.
• For a class of 15 students, a gift between $50 and $100 per student will cover the cost of hiring 3D artists and XR software developers to build custom software for our specific program needs.
• A gift of $500 will purchase a VR headset that will enable students to take on the role of a conservation scientist, a park ranger, an animal care specialist, a marine biologist or an environmental justice advocate in a fully immersive virtual reality. This equipment will be used by new students each term and will likely impact as many as eight students in a year (per headset).
