Hello Mogpies! Many have heard the phrase "walk a mile in my shoes", but we have never been able to truly do this...until now. VR has given us the ability to experience almost first hand certain situations that would have been lost to us in the past. And many designers are using it as a tool to educate individuals on historical events or personal stories. From going to the wrong bathroom to playing in the Negro Baseball League we can now experience just about everything. But the question here is does this create true empathy or is it more of a gaming experience. Can we truly walk a mile in someone else's shoes using VR?
