Openlab provides immersive virtual biology and chemistry labs for students to practice laboratory protocols before entering a physical lab. Learners can interact with virtual equipment such as pipettes and test tubes, and explore molecular structures and DNA. Interactive quizzes test learners at each protocol step, while teachers can track progress through a web dashboard. Professors can request virtual labs based on an experiment described in a document or video. Openlab currently supports Oculus Quest 2 with hand tracking, so students interact using their hands. The maker suggests using the labs before real lab work, as a class supplement, or as a group activity. Openlab says it will ship a headset to an institute for a limited-time free trial and help with setup. Its terms state that services are free of charge, while noting that fees or subscriptions may be introduced in the future with notice. The platform is web-based, and the company is based in Varese, Italy.
