Olim Planet, a specialist in immersive prolonged reality (XR), announced on the twenty fifth that it had collaborated with the Department of Spatial and Environmental Systems Engineering at Handong University and students at Ulleung High School to present the ‘Pohang-Ulleung Modern Culture Street’ metaverse space.
The ‘Pohang-Ulleung Modern Culture Street’ content is a metaverse space jointly produced by Handong University and Ulleung High School students through budget support from the Handong University LINC 3.0 Project Team and the Gyeongsangbuk-do KU City Cultural Content Revitalization Project.
Within the metaverse space, various stories are captured by connecting the Pohang Japanese House Street and the Ulleung History and Culture Experience Center. The road of Japanese houses was used as a backdrop for the dramas ‘When the Camellia Blooms’ and ‘Eyes of Dawn’. The Ulleung History and Culture Experience Center regenerates a Japanese house and operates an exhibition space.
The HMD experience will even be available in web form. You’ll be able to wear a headset and walk along Modern Culture Street to explore and study information related to Pohang and Ulleungdo. Because of this, it is alleged that it stimulates curiosity in regards to the region and inspires the will to go to in person.
Meanwhile, Ollim Planet recently participated within the ‘2024 Korea Metaverse Festival (KMF 2024)’ held at Yangjae aT Center and introduced the contents of the Pohang-Ulleung Modern Culture Street. At the identical time, we received many inquiries by introducing a business model based on the ‘XR content platform’.
An Ollim Planet official said, “We received a variety of interest in the sphere through our technical strength of enabling web-based access with only an Web connection without an HMD.”
