Salmon Environmental Monitoring Experience (FarmVR)

In this immersive educational experience, the environmental monitoring team aboard ‘the regulator’ from Tassal take you on a journey to the seabed. Matt explains what the team does to check on the benthic environment and ensuring that Tassal is compliant with regulations and management of these waterways

This VR experience is part of a series of VR education experiences around farming salmon. This is ‘immersive education’ and your students can experience what it is like to visit a salmon farm without leaving the classroom. These VR experiences are part of two Grade 5/6 resources based on the curriculum areas of science and technologies. The two resources you can also access here to find out more about farming salmon: Salmon Science – Growing a Salmon Leaper & Jeepers Creepers Salmon Leapers
The best way for your students to ‘experience’ this is to watch using FarmVR in 360 vision. To do this:
Step 1 – Install the FarmVR App on your mobile device https://www.farmvr.com.au/download/
Step 2 – Navigate to Aquaculture / Salmon / Dissection
**VR goggles required
