A springboard for students
#Students is an international competition reserved for students and schools exploring VR/AR in their field of study or during their training. We give students and schools who have developed a project using these technologies the opportunity to present it free of charge at the show. Innovative prototypes, interactive experiences, research projects or new forms of immersive storytelling: this selection shows the potential and boldness of the new generation already shaping the future of XR.
The winning team will have the opportunity to take part in IVRC!

Since 1993, IVRC (Japan) has challenged student teams to plan and produce interactive works. The contest was thoroughly reinvented in 2020 to bring forward the next generation of the VR community, in an environment that has changed dramatically.
