The Kai XR platform is accessible via smartphones, laptops, tablets, desktop computers, and VR headsets. We can be accessed on any device with a web browser. Just open up your favorite web browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc) and enter the URL.
When building in the 3D design studio, we recommend doing so from a tablet, laptop, or desktop computer rather than a smartphone or VR headset to make use of keyboard shortcuts and a larger screen.
No. You do not need a gaming laptop or desktop to build in the Kai XR makerspace. Our makerspace is accessible via VR headsets, smartphones, tablets, desktop computers, and laptops.
For younger students learning the basics of designing in the makerspace, we suggest starting with a desktop/laptop or a tablet.
No. You do not have to use a VR headset to watch Kai XR virtual field trip videos or to explore the 3D makerspace. Our content are also accessible via smartphones, tablets, desktop computers, and laptops.
Mixed reality (XR) combines AR & VR elements to produce new environments. In XR, digital objects co-exist and interact with physical objects in real time.
Augmented reality (AR) is when technology, such as a smartphone, overlays digital images on top of your real-world view. The digital enhancements combined with the natural world create an augmented reality. An example would be using a Snapchat filter or playing Pokemon Go.
Virtual reality (VR) is when you use wearable technology, such as a VR headset, providing complete immersion in a digital 360˚/3D environment.
Kai XR recommends adult supervision for children 12 years and younger.
A majority of our virtual field trips are five minutes or less.
After completing a VR field trip, we recommend a 5-minute break to think critically and discuss VR experiences.
