  • 🚀 Bring the Past to Life with ThingLink: The University of Salford’s Virtual Eyam Experience 🌍✨ The University of Salford used ThingLink to create a Virtual Field Trip to Eyam, a village that self-isolated during a plague outbreak in 1665. This immersive experience allows students to explore the setting in a way that feels like stepping into a real-world video game. This immersive experience includes: 🔹 AI-Generated Realism – Backgrounds were created in Skybox AI by Blockade Labs, with character avatars and scripts created with Microsoft Copilot AI and animated with AI video tools.  🔹 Multi-Platform Access – The Virtual Eyam Experience works across physical immersive spaces, VR headsets, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices, increasing accessibility for students. Revolutionizing education with immersive technology! 🚀 #VirtualFieldTrips #EdTech #ImmersiveLearning #FutureofLearning
