All kinds of virtual reality projects were welcome, for example interactive installations and applications inside and outside of the web, rides through 3D movies and worlds, virtual reality games, and so on.\r\n\r\nOver seventy fascinating project proposals were received from applicants from all over the world. The three chosen web residents will work on their projects for four weeks until July 4 2016, reporting on their steps.
