Marriott Hotels showcases Virtual Reality Travel at the Arabian Travel Market

During the Marriott Virtual Travel Experience, guests enter the Teleporter, where they will put on virtual reality headsets and headphones to be completely immersed in a virtual world. From there, they will visit a virtual version of a new Marriott Greatroom lobby, and then virtually travel to a black sand beach in Maui, Hawaii and to the top of a skyscraper in downtown London. While “traveling,” people will experience 4-D elements – the feeling of the warm sun on their skin, breeze in their hair, rumble of waves under foot and ocean spray in their face – to make the experience feel extremely lifelike. Here’s the video that you’ll see, it is in 360p though which doesn’t do justice to what you get to see on the Oculus.
