Near the Speed of Light

VR/mobile crossplay

Free · Designed for iPad

THIS APPLICATION CAN BE USED ONLY TOGETHER WITH A CORRESPONDING VIRTUAL REALITY EXPERIENCE. A multiplayer VR/mobile crossplay experience designed for a class of students who can play as a team against virtual reality players in an educational simulation that advances understanding of relativistic effects. Fly a squadron of shuttles and learn what happens when you approach the speed of light, experience changes that happen due to the Relativistic Doppler Effect, the Headlight Effect, Lorentz Contraction and Time Asynchronisation - all while having fun and engaging gameplay with your friends. This is another immersive experience in the Visceral Science series by the World Science Festival. The application was developed with the help of the OpenRelativity toolkit created by the MIT Game Lab.
