The newly established cross-faculty XR+LAB at the HFT serves as an interdisciplinary experimental space, teaching environment and catalyst for research, as well as a platform for external knowledge transfer. A central feature of the lab is a three-sided CAVE, which creates an immersive, three-dimensional illusionary world of virtual reality (VR).

The XR+LAB creates an innovative and future-oriented infrastructure that expands research and teaching opportunities while strengthening the university as a hub for technological advancement.
