Students and staff at Western Nevada College experimented with virtual and augmented reality-based learning technology on Oct. 23 and 24 at the Carson City campus. zSpace, a technology firm from Sunnyvale, Calif., mobilized 10 tabletop work stations as part of its Northern Nevada mobile classroom tour in Northern Nevada. The hands-on demonstrations allowed participants to interact with simulated objects in virtual environments.

Sunnyvale, Calif., technology firm zSpace brought virtual and augmented reality learning technology to Western Nevada College on Tuesday.

Why does the County have to pay the whole bill?
