AR-Schädel AppIn the preclinical phase, medical students require a precise understanding of anatomical structures, yet traditional learning materials offer limited interactivity. The Dorothea Erxleben Teaching Centre in Halle addresses this challenge with its “AR Skull App”. A 3D skull model, based on real anatomical data, is digitally enhanced through augmented reality, enabling users to visualise structures directly on the model. The app tracks learning progress and includes quiz features – leveraging AR to support orientation, engagement, and long-term knowledge retention. Focus: Medicine |
Delir VR“It was more than a nightmare.” Disorientation, perceptual disturbances, illusions – individuals experiencing delirium report a wide range of symptoms that are often difficult for others to fully grasp. The VR short story Delir VR enables users to experience these sensations first-hand from a patient’s perspective, offering an immersive and empathetic understanding of the condition.

DigiLehRThe DigiLehR project aims to integrate Augmented and Virtual Reality sustainably into higher education. It develops AR/VR applications using Unity, links them to learning management systems, and tests them in the fields of automation, media design, and public administration. The goal is to promote practice-oriented learning and to empower instructors—through a dedicated guideline—to independently use mixed reality in their teaching. This fosters an innovative, digital teaching and learning culture. Focus: Automation and Computer Science |
LUSTABThe project develops hybrid teaching and self-learning formats with VR/3D in wastewater engineering. They enable international, flexible participation, provide practice-oriented visualizations, and strengthen studyability as well as climate neutrality. Focus: Water, Environment, Construction and Safety |
Rundflug durch den Schädel VRThe serious game ‘Flight Through the Skull VR’ allows medical students to take a virtual journey through the skull, where they explore the spatial structures and clinical functions of ten of the twelve cranial nerves at the cerebellopontine angle. Focus: Medicine |
Virtuelle LeichenschauLike in a detective story, medical students explore a virtual apartment and train post-mortem examinations and death certification in highly realistic scenarios. Designed for both initial and continuing training formats, the offering enables standardised, resource-efficient practice with straightforward reproducibility. Focus: Medicine |
 ViSUS PRO - Virtual and Sustainable Product DevelopmentThe ViSUS PRO project aims to develop a teaching and learning environment, consisting of an xR lab with a specific test bench, which will enable students to acquire skills in sustainable product development through innovative learning formats.
