Overview / Usage

Learning through experience is the best way to understand sciences. Hands on is always suggested, but when this is regarding some chemicals or dangerous activities there are several problems that make experiments complicated.
Future Lab is a Virtual Reality that will put the people on the shoes of criminal scientists using real lab equipment and procedures to help to solve crimes and seeing how science make part of the routine of several people.

Methodology / Approach

Our project Future Lab has got some investment from Brazilian government and we have start to develop it in the few months.
At beginning we were focusing in reproducing academic simulations and experiments, but recently we understood that the approach of using it as part of a profession would make it even more interesting for students and enthusiasts.
The modeling has already started, we are creating the fluid and gas simulations.
Next steps are to create an editor to generate the experiments in a easy way.
