Lingua Vitae
By engaging in conversations with Roman characters in VR, the Lingua Vitae Team aims to revitalize studying Latin, reframing it as a language once used in everyday conversation instead of just a dead language. The Lingua Vitae Project is a virtual reality experience created in collaboration with the Classics and Ancient Studies department that leverages immersion to supplement traditional classical language courses.
