UWC to offer SA's first Immersive Technology diploma
The trending news in the world is that the University of the Western Cape (UWC) on
Thursday, approached planned understudies and industry to the Postgraduate
Diploma in an Immersive Technologies open day to be hung on Saturday.
The Postgraduate Diploma in Immersive Technologies open day
will exhibit the Augmented Reality (AR)/Virtual Reality (VR) innovation on
offer in the program, and driving specialists will be close by to answer every
one of your inquiries.
AR comprises of an intelligent ordeal of a particular domain
whereby PC produced perceptual data expand the items that live in reality, once
in a while over different tangible modalities and VR replaces the client's true
condition with a mimicked one.
UWC is the leading university in South Africa to offer a
certify Postgraduate Diploma in e-Skills with Immersive Technologies Stream,
which joins Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality. The one-year program keeps
running in an organization with a central immersive innovation organization -
EON Reality.
Educator Antoine Bagula, leader of the Computer Science
Program at UWC, said the program was imperative for South Africa since it
offered improved discovering that was unrealistic without the AR/VR advances.
"A few examinations around the globe have uncovered
that learning in an immersive situation prompts enhanced achievement rates
contrasted with conventional methods for learning," he said.
He included that an ongoing report in South Africa on the
Fourth Industrial Revolution found that all segments of industry wanted to
utilize AR/VR to build their efficiency. These incorporate retail, mining,
development, building, IT programming and administrations, wellbeing,
instruction, coordination, fund, land, assembling and preparing reenactments.
Dr. Mmaki Jantjies, the senior instructor in Information
Systems, stated: "UWC, in understanding the need to create abilities in
the Fourth Industrial Revolution, took a gander at banding together with EON
Reality to upskill youthfully and up and coming Africans in expertise that is
genuinely necessary, AR and VR. Understudies will have the capacity to figure
out how to build up the innovation for immersive stages like head-mounted
riggings and cell phones."
The program, alongside EON Reality, is a coordinated effort
with UWC's bureau of software engineering in data frameworks. It reacts, to
some degree, to priest of advanced education Naledi Pandor's call amid her
spending discourse for tertiary foundations to deliver graduates who are
prepared for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
