Embark on an exciting adventure with our innovative project, Plastics Journey, in which we harness the power of extended reality (XR) to raise awareness on the pressing environmental issue of microplastics. Our team’s creative method utilizes new ways to educate the masses. Plastics Journey is an immersive XR experience that reveals the lifetime, dissemination, and possible impact of microplastic pollution in our environment. Explore the interactive sub-worlds, each dedicated to uncovering different aspects of the microplastic pollution crisis and learn about actionable steps for a better and healthier future.

Using modern XR technology, our project allows you to explore two separate worlds: the ocean and bustling urban settings. Through fascinating imagery and engaging interactions, we hope to increase awareness and build a deeper understanding of the ubiquitous threat that microplastics pose to our planet and all of its inhabitants.
