AMD FirePro Graphics powers Virtual Reality Solution from zSpace; offers VR-based educational solutions for the classroom

zSpace has picked AMD FirePro W5170M graphics to power the new zSpace for Education enabling real world virtual reality in the classroom.

Unlike other VR solutions, AMD FirePro professional graphics-powered zSpace for Education delivers interaction and group collaboration through a VR precision ‘stylus’ to naturally access the virtual experience matched with a head-tracking computer display in an innovative, all-in-one design.

“AMD FirePro professional graphics deliver the features and horsepower required for this innovative new product which requires exceptional visual performance.” said Sean Burke, corporate vice president and general manager, AMD Professional Graphics Group.

“AMD FirePro graphics technology is an important piece of our next generation all-in-one solution for education, which is designed to deliver the world’s most natural and realistic virtual reality experience,” said Paul Kellenberger, CEO zSpace.

The new zSpace for Education empowers students to “learn by doing” in a virtual environment where it is easy to undo mistakes, make changes and not worry about material costs or clean up.
