VR-Labs Brings Advanced Online Labs to Mexico

Q: Your company is known for creating virtual laboratories «VR-Labs» that encourage investigative skills in children and reduce the fear of making mistakes. How does this approach contribute to education and innovation?

A: Our mission is "Raising a new generation of engineers." To achieve this, we create the world's best virtual laboratories so that our children can learn, explore, and discover new things. VR-Labs are web-based applications that allow you to practice various scientific disciplines, such as Physics, Chemistry, Robot Construction, Programming, and 3D Modeling, using a wide range of virtual tools for conducting experiments and research.

Our technology enables students to safely access any type of laboratory or equipment.There they can use any available tools and construct any experiment, just like in the real world, but in a virtual environment.

They do not fear making mistakes because they can perform these activities at home, privately, without being observed. This allows them to take the time to understand the process and results. Unlike in a classroom with 100 students, where fear of errors may prevent participation, this personal approach enables experimentation without hesitation. Students can repeat exercises as needed, and if they make mistakes, it is not a problem. This method provides much greater confidence.

Q: What skills will students develop by using this type of technology?

A: Students will gain practical skills in using instruments as if they were real, even when physical equipment is unavailable or too expensive for home use. They will learn to understand methodologies, and adapt these tools to their courses at school. This system facilitates learning by allowing students to interact with advanced technology in a practical way.

Q: What reasons led to the creation of 42 LLC and what benefits does it offer to its international partners?

A: Our motivation is primarily social. We have projects in public health and digital systems that allow users to connect without difficulty. Our educational niche is unique and can be easily adapted to other languages, which is why we are presenting it globally, including in Africa, Asia, India, Indonesia, China, and Brazil. The system can be implemented in any country. We are seeking partners and opportunities to install the system internationally, as it does not depend heavily on language or location.

We are looking for a technological partner who can help us promote and install the product in Mexico. This partner could be a company, school, or government office. Collaborating with the Moscow Export Center is our first step in entering the Mexican market.

Q: Looking ahead, what is your vision for 42 LLC in Latin America and Mexico, and how do you plan to build long-term collaborations in the region?

A: We have a positive outlook. We believe our work in Mexico will provide significant benefits. Unfortunately, public sector resources are limited, so we hope to help at least the private sector by giving students access to more advanced technologies from around the world.
