MasterWorks: Journey Through History is a virtual reality experience that lets you travel
across three continents to visit some of the world’s most amazing places that span over 3000
years of human history.
What you learn:
In four fully explorable environments, you collect artifacts and learn from archaeologists and
scientists about the mysteries of who built these amazing places and learn about the chal-
lenges they face today.

Working closely with Oculus and CyArk, our team at FarBridge combined state of the art LIDAR
imaging and photogrammetry with cross-platform virtual reality software to bring you closer
How you learn: than ever before to remote locations, all in beautiful detail and research-level precision.
We want as many people as possible to visit these awe-inspiring sites, so we prioritized com-
fort, ease-of-use, and accessibility throughout the entire project.
