Novosibirsk Scientists to Build a VR Service for Designing the Perfect Garden

Researchers in Novosibirsk are creating a virtual reality platform that lets users design and experience their dream garden before a single tree is planted.

Scientists at Novosibirsk State Technical University are developing a landscape design service powered by virtual reality. The platform will allow users to visualize a site plan before any physical work begins.

Its key advantage lies in realistic, high-detail visualization. Users will not only be able to see, but also to 'hear' their future garden thanks to immersive natural soundscapes. The system will feature a large library of plants, building materials, and decorative elements, while built-in AI algorithms will account for local climate conditions to recommend the most suitable flora.

The primary audience for the service includes landscape designers, architecture firms, and real estate developers. Eventually, the project will be deployed on a cloud platform, ensuring access from anywhere in the world.
