Greenfish Labs and Lebanon Valley College Join Forces in Virtual Reality World

ANNVILLE, PA (09/04/2015)(readMedia)-- Greenfish Labs, Inc., a multimedia company that specializes in virtual reality content development, has signed a contract with Lebanon Valley College to develop cutting-edge course content for the school's Digital Communications Program. Beginning with the spring 2016 semester, LVC students in digital communications will work with Greenfish employees on projects intended to hone their skills and become more marketable by graduation.

Virtual Reality (VR) artificially creates a three-dimensional image or environment that can be interacted with in a seemingly real or physical way.

Using Oculus headsets originally designed for video gamers, Greenfish creates virtual reality content for a myriad of applications, ranging from medical training and real estate to travel and tourism. There really is no limit to the kind of content Greenfish can create. Thus, the partnership with LVC will enable students to be truly innovative.

"We plan to help Lebanon Valley College students get a leg up on the competition by giving them access to virtual reality technology and equipment," said Sovanna Mam, one of the founders of Greenfish Labs.

"I am not aware of any other colleges our size doing this," said Dr. Jeff Ritchie, chair and associate professor of digital communications. "By partnering with Greenfish, we give students an opportunity to experience real-world applications in the classroom. We think that experience is incredible."

Approximately 80 students who are enrolled in digital communications classes at LVC will have access to Greenfish's hardware and virtual reality cameras.
