VR Physics Lab

About Us
Our Mission
At VR Physics Lab, the goal is to explore how virtual reality can help make complex physics concepts more visual, intuitive, and accessible. This site is part of an undergraduate research project focused on building and documenting immersive simulations that model real-world scientific processes — starting with Climate Lens VR, a simulation about Earth’s energy budget.
While the simulation is still in development, the blog serves as a space to explain the physics behind it, share design decisions, and reflect on how immersive technology can support deeper conceptual understanding. This is a work-in-progress created by a student researcher, and the site will continue to evolve as new features are added to the project.
Join along to learn more about the science, the challenges of development, and the ideas driving the creation of a virtual physics lab.
