When someone asks me to go to IKEA, my hair usually stands on end. I don't exactly prefer to spend my free time slogging through the seemingly endless aisles, voluntarily exposing myself to the screaming of children, only to end up standing in front of a huge queue. But now, at least in Germany, there is one more way to immerse yourself in the colourful world of Ikea without having to flock there on a Saturday morning with hundreds of other customers. IKEA introduced a virtual reality application for the Oculus Rift glasses after the AR applications.<\/p>\n
The virtual Ikea world under the untypically sober name of Ikea VR Furnishing Experience shows various products such as sofas, tables or kitchen units that the customer can combine. In addition, the variants and colours can be swapped so that the customer gets a better insight into how different combinations can work together - and all this in a 360-degree view of a virtual room. Different wall colours and times of day with their specific lighting moods can also be simulated.<\/p>\n
