David Attenborough’s First Life Virtual Reality (VR) is an award-winning fully immersive virtual reality experience. Using top paleontological research and state of the art computer technology, long-extinct animals such as the five-eyed Opabinia, the fearsome looking Anomalocaris and the spiny, worm-like Hallucigenia are brought vividly to life in this 360 CGI VR experience.
