The Virteon Burgas virtual and augmented reality demonstration and training centre has reopened in Bulgaria’s Black Sea city of Burgas.

In summer, the centre only had programming courses but with the start of the academic year it opened doors to schoolchildren, members of the public and guests to the city. Virteon Burgas, established by Burgas municipality and the Prof. Dr. Assen Zlatarov University, has cutting edge technology allowing for 3D demonstrations and 360-degree panoramic views, enabling visitors to take a virtual journey back to prehistoric times, or to dive down to the bottom of the sea, or take part in expeditions into the Amazon jungle. The 3D classes, on the other hand, help school and university students in their studies of chemistry, physics, biology, nature and society etc.
