iWorld Australia inks exclusive ANZ distribution deal with Curiscope

iWorld Australia announce exclusive ANZ distribution deal with Curiscope, the UK-based company bringing learning to life with augmented and virtual reality products and experiences.


Who are Curiscope?

Curiscope have been working in immersive technologies for over five years, creating the most viewed educational virtual reality experience of all time (Great White Sharks 360 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNOT_feL27Y) and the Virtuali-Tee, a t-shirt that lets you explore the human body on a human body through augmented reality.


What is the Virtuali-Tee?

It’s a t-shirt that pairs with a free app for teaching about the human anatomy in the most immersive and engaging way possible, allowing learning in context for the first time. Simply point an iOS or Android phone or tablet with the app installed at a t-shirt and watch the human body come to life. Track your heart rate live in the app, visualise the organs and go inside virtual reality experiences including the lungs, intestines and the bloodstream. 

The Virtuali-Tee is now being used in thousands of schools in over 100 countries around the world. It has won the Mom’s Choice Gold Award in the USA as well as the Gold Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Award. The product has been featured on The Today Show (NBC, USA) and on This Morning (ITV, UK).


The Curiscope Mission

At Curiscope, we believe that immersive technologies can enable learning experiences that were never possible before. Whether they’re expensive, inaccessible, dangerous or straight up impossible, Curiscope is building AR & VR learning that creates an entirely new learning experience and outcome.


For the Educators

The Virtuali-Tee comes with free learning resources for use in the classroom and pairs with projectors for group-based learning. 

Ed Barton, Curiscope CEO states, “since launching the product we’ve been blown away by the reaction from teachers, schools and their students, all of whom are amazed by what the product can achieve. There is still nothing like seeing the reaction of kids when they first see the product come to life and I’ll never tire of hearing teachers tell me about their experience with it.” 

Aldrin De Clase, director of iWorld Australia states, “We have been in discussions with the Curiscope team for some time now and proud to be launching it together in ANZ. We have already presented the range to many schools and customers across Australia and New Zealand and the response has been out of this world. Stock is on its way and we see that customers are already ordering Curiscope in advance.”
