TIME Immersive is a breakthrough in journalism that aims to bring stories to life with its AR and VR apps. You can use it for an interactive experience with accounts which can change the way you see or read stories.
It can be used in classrooms, living rooms, offices or wherever you are. With the TIME Immersive App that is available for both iOS and Android, you can enjoy the interactive and enhanced experience of visual journalism.
The app was launched with a moon landing experience that can be visualized in the living room of a user. Users can check out the tabletop landing on the moon in AR mode. It has original audio from Neil Armstrong and shows his first steps on the moon.
Hence, this is definitely a breakthrough and can make the entire experience of people with AR and VR very intense.
In the words of Nick Partridge, the leader of strategic partnerships for the Museum and Co-Director of the Apollo 50 national celebration, “The National Air and Space Museum’s Apollo collection is the largest in the world, and we are excited to present Landing on the Moon with our partners at TIME, whose Apollo-era reporting helped shape the way Americans experienced the space race. This AR activation brings our artifacts to life like never before, and we hope it inspires a new generation to define their own 21st-century Moonshot.”
There is no doubt that this will change the way people see news items. TIME has never left any stones unturned when it comes to sharing stories and news, but now, with this AR and VR experience, they will take this to the next level.
However, this is not where it stops because they have already promised some more immersive projects to be released soon. They plan to come up with an immersive documentary series with the International Space Station.
So, it is excellent news for all space enthusiasts. There is a lot to look forward to with the TIME Immersive AR and VR app in the future.
