HTC has funded a VR project on the so-called "Unabomber". This is about the mathematician Theodore Kaczynskiwho sent a total of 16 letter bombs to various people in the USA between 1978 and 1995.
The letter bombs killed three people and injured another 23. The press dubbed Theodore Kaczynski the "Unabomber". The criminal case was the most expensive and longest in the history of the FBI. The VR experience provides a historical reappraisal and serves educational purposes.
In "Unabomber VR" you take on the role of FBI agent Terry Turchie, who was involved in the investigation. For example, you examine the most important pieces of evidence, defuse a bomb and visit the hermit's cabin where Theodore Kaczynski has retreated.
"Unabomber VR" was developed by the Newseum, the Museum of Journalism in Washington D.C.. The VR experience will be released via Steam and Viveport. Other apps of this kind are to follow.
