From Barriers to Breakthroughs

Yes, it’s a challenge for society - but from another perspective, it can also be an opportunity to create change. We believe that the very tools that can hold us back can also be the ones that lift us higher.

That is why Mirror XR was introduced to break the stigma about mental health problems and immersive technologies by actually creating a safe reflective space to equip students with valuable knowledge about digital literacy, AI safety and well being skills.
