Our VR Lab
PERSEUS @ UGA is developing a VR lecture for students to learn about tree and plant species. The lecture footage is captured using a 360 camera on an autonomous robot, and the students view the lecture through VR headsets.

PROMOTING ECONOMIC RESILIENCE AND SUSTAINABILITY OF EASTERN U.S. FORESTS
Funded by USDA's NIFA program, PERSEUS is a multi-institution collaboration between the University of Georgia, Purdue University, and the University of Maine. The PERSEUS project will provide the necessary foundation for redefining national forest inventory in the U.S., while also providing the ability to project future forest conditions and provide ecosystem services across contrasting scales.
Eastern U.S. forests are predominantly privately owned, and forest landowners often lack basic information and tools necessary to assess, manage, and project important forest ecosystem services and their potential economic value.
PERSEUS will allow land managers to make informed decisions that will affect the delivery, sustainability, and resilience of forest resources.
This work is supported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, National Institute of Food and Agriculture, Sustainable Agricultural Systems program, PERSEUS grant, #2023-68012-38992.
