Climbing Mount Everest with Batman. Sound far-fetched? It’s just one of the “adventures of a lifetime” featured in last year’s science fiction movie hit, “Ready Player One,” where virtual reality (VR) capabilities let loose characters’ imaginations. In today’s world, companies are turning that kind of “science fiction into science fact.”
Combining over 300,000 high-resolution images of Mount Everest, expertise and cutting edge virtual reality technology, Iceland’s Sólfar Studios has developed a way for you to experience the climb from base camp to peak. All you have to do is wear a pair of VR goggles.1 Never mind things like your age, skill, stamina, scheduling, travel, weather, health and financing–now lifetime adventures and destinations can appear right before your eyes.
