Description:
Attendees at the Pennsylvania Farm Show in Harrisburg have been lining up to try a newly developed virtual-reality experience that allows users to experience horse racing from a completely new perspective: through the eyes of a jockey or harness driver.
The 360-degree virtual reality experience — using video filmed during actual Thoroughbred and harness races in Pennsylvania — allows individuals wearing a virtual reality headset to look left, right, and behind them as they race against other horses toward the finish line.
