One of the joys of what we do at Igloo is getting involved with innovative, first-of-their-kind installations. And we were especially excited to be involved with the ACE Suite, installed at the Munster Technological University (formerly Institute of Technology, Tralee) - Ireland’s first and only AR/VR/XR suite.
The AgriTech Centre of Excellence, headquartered at MTU, is a collaboration between Dairymaster, McHale Engineering, Abbey Machinery, Kerry County Council and MTU to develop cutting-edge learning and development solutions for the AgriTech sector. It’s the first collaboration of its kind in Ireland and Europe, with the aim of innovating learning in the sector and ultimately improving the skills of people working within it.
And the ACE Suite reflects this aim to offer the very latest technologies to its learners - a purpose-built physical and virtual collaboration space, kitted out with VR headsets, AR glasses, 360° cameras for content creation, and more.
