The Exeter VSimulator features in an interview series by TechExeter, which includes insights into the facility from academic partners and technical experts. 

The videos include a tour underground at the facility and an explanation of how it all works from the Senior Experimental Officer, interviews with biomechanists about their research using the facility and a ride on a virtual boat. 

They were created during a day of filming with Kris Sum from TechExeter, which organises meet-ups, conference, hacks and events for the city’s tech community. 

The videos are available on You Tube via the links below and can also be viewed on TechExeter’s Twitter feed at @TechExeter:
