Discover Bedford’s fascinating airship story in this pop-up experience that features Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality technology. Our pop-up is part of Shuttleworth’s Engineering Open Workshop weekend and is included in the Engineering Open Workshop ticket. To book tickets, visit the Shuttleworth Events page here.
Step inside airship and aviation history and explore what it was like to design, fly, and investigate these incredible engineering feats.
Expect to:
- Explore a multi-room immersive airship gallery
- Step back in time with Virtual Reality into human scale physical environments
- Interact with 3D models and the stories behind them as Augmented Reality
- Access to a selection of archive, experimental, instructional and generative AI films.
To make the most of this new and exciting experience and to avoid having to wait on the day (we have a limited number of headsets), we highly recommend booking a slot in advance!
