This week we discuss the use of XR for reconstructing historical sites that are not with us anymore. We are joined by two very special guests Ben Newman and Adam Morsman who are research apprentices at one of the largest telecommunications company in the UK. Research apprentices tell us about their journey on creating a virtual reality experience for the Bawsdsey Radar in Suffolk. VR experience is now available to try in the Bawdsey Radar Museum where guests can climb up the historical radar towers that were used to detect enemy planes in World War 2.
