What is WOW RIDE?

WOW RIDE" is a new type of XR bus that turns even the "travel time" to your destination into an enjoyable experience. Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) images are projected on the windows of the bus, and passengers are entertained with a variety of images and sounds until they reach their destination. Passengers do not need any peripheral devices such as goggles or tablets; they simply sit on the bus and experience a virtual space with a sense of presence that they cannot get on ordinary sightseeing buses!
