Glass Barn Uses Virtual Reality to Tell Agriculture Story

glass-barn-2-e1502939683494The Glass Barn at the Indiana State Fair has always been about using technology to teach about agriculture. Now, a new approach gives visitors a virtual farm experience.  For the past several years, visitors to the Glass Barn have been able to talk to real farmers on their farms with a 2-way, video connection. Hannah Vorsilak says this year they can also make a virtual visit, “They put on these special glasses, and you can go virtual into a hog barn. It is a 360 degree experience, so you can move  your head up and down and all around and see what the inside of a hog barn looks like.”
