New: AI passthrough!

This amazing Deo feature uses the power of AI to turn every VR scene into AR passthrough! Now you can take characters out of VR and have them right there with you - as if they were in the same room.

Notice: AI Passthrough is presently in beta mode, and as such, users may encounter occasional service imperfections. The feature is currently exclusive to the DeoVR app, but it will soon be accessible on both browsers and mobile devices. Your feedback is highly encouraged and appreciated.

Recommended headsets:

Meta Quest 3, and Quest Pro with stereoscopic color passthrough, Pico 4 (monoscopic color passthrough).

Compatible headsets:

Quest 2, Valve Index (monoscopic black and white passthrough).

Passthrough is not compatible yet for Oculus Link cable.

South Africa World War One is a 360/VR film that reinvents commemoration of the First World War for the digital age, making it more widely accessible and socially inclusive. The war was a seminal period for South Africa’s development as a nation and for its population. Yet remembrance has long been confined to events on the European battlefields. South Africa World War I tells a broader story: of South Africa’s harbour workers; of the country’s rich natural resources in funding the war economy; of battlefield experiences of all population groups across Africa, Palestine and Europe, and much more. South Africa World War One fosters joint commemoration that speaks to all ages and population groups.

Partners in South Africa and Britain have teamed up to create this film to reflect the interests of diverse audiences.
We are grateful to the Arts and Humanities Research Council for funding these important resources, and to Arts Council England for their ongoing support of MBD's work.
