Description of Invention

The Immersive VR Joget is a pioneering application aimed at revitalizing Malaysia's traditional dance heritage. The objective is to address challenges in traditional dance education, such as limited access to skilled instructors and geographical barriers. The VR application offers a fully immersive 360-degree perspective of the Joget dance. Gamified learning and interactive NPCs guide users through dance movements and cultural contexts, thus enhancing engagement. This innovative approach merges cultural preservation with cutting-edge technology, creating an accessible and enriching dance-learning experience for future generations.
