Altair VR: Virtual world of knowledge

Well, how interested in learning through VR after the first part of our review about Altair? Then you will be interested in learning how everything works. In this part, we will take a little look at how the world and the interaction in the ecosystem will be arranged.

The world that offers us Altair is quite fascinating. A lot of sector that will be visited by the player is built according to the game principle Open world, which gives the student additional opportunities for training:

Learn from mistakes. That is, when you carry out the task for a certain scenario, then, most likely, very soon adapt to it and begin to think in a stereotyped way. When you act not bound by the limitations of the game world, you can show creativity. Just remember how you passed the mission to Grand Theft Auto - almost every player had his own technique.
A student who uses Altair gets experience that is closest to reality. Suppose you can conduct physical experience using a conventional PC, placing virtual instruments and preparing reagents. However, to repeat the same experience in reality, most likely, you will not succeed. The case in manual skills that you do not get when working with a desktop computer. If you are learning with VR, then you are more likely to transfer your skills to the life situation.
Training in the open-world VR makes your brain work more mobilized. You must always be ready for change, and not adapt to the scenarios, as we said above.

Measurement axes

This is one of the coolest chips of the Altair universe , which will appeal to both students and teachers alike. This chip is two ways, akin to measuring virtual reality: the axis of the scale of perception, where you travel from the micro to the macrolevel and the time axis, which allows you to view the subject in the perspective of time, including the distant past and several concepts of the future.

Each of these dimensions is a great field for the activity of content authors. Due to measurements, the same object can be viewed from different angles, under different circumstances and at different scaling levels.

Nevertheless, a different scale allows us to consider only objective reality, which is expressed through VR. The time axis, however, gives an incredible impetus to the development of historical sciences. For example, different scientists can describe the life of the Aztecs differently or the circumstances of taking the Bastille.

Perhaps you will ask what restricts the freedom of speech of historians today, how can they not describe events differently now? Censorship, we will answer you. Even while you do not see her activity, she works in the vast media.

Decentralized means independent

What does Altair offer? Independence of opinion through decentralization. The only censor that will control the creation of new content is the community of platform participants. They, while evaluating the work of each of the content producers, will be responsible for the overall quality of the content. Now it's fair to say that educational VR programs are really the ones that we deserve.

However, not all assessments will be able to assess the compatibility of applications. Otherwise, we would be faced with a problem that distorts the real support of projects on large social platforms, like Instagram or YouTube. Everyone can easily "buy" himself views and likes, so it's rare that such an assessment can be called objective.

Instead, appraisers on the platform will be moderators - users with a positive rating. We hope that for greater effect, the creators will make them at least half anonymous. Then, bribing their votes will be much less possible. After all, dishonest voting is based on bribing society. If no one will know who evaluates the content on the site, then the entire promotion scheme breaks down.

But the moderators do not evaluate the entire application - only the possibility of its existence on the platform: does it comply with all Altair requirements, does it refer to the platform theme, etc.? The popularity of the application is still determined by the way it is used. We remember that Altair does not trust all indiscriminately and came up with another caste of participants - active users. As a matter of fact, from usual they differ by quantity of tokens in a purse. At what, than more tokens, the more weighty the participant's voice.
