Did you know? VR has been around since the 1950s but until recent times the
technology wasn’t able to deliver a completely indulgent digital experience we
had been wanting to experience. But with recent advancement to the tech sector
which has impacted all the sectors including transportation, education, etc.
The government uses this technology for complicated tasks and collaborations.
Many organizations can integrate these technologies into their existing
infrastructures. They can also get on finding a way to use evolves technology and

The concept of the smart city is floating everywhere and an increasing number of
cities are getting digitally connected and technologies such as the Internet of
things where sensors to collect data and use that data to manage assets and
