RJI Futures Lab update #184: Wall Street Journal’s Daydream VR app

The Wall Street Journal recently launched a VR app that allows users to experience the Journal in immersive 3-D in Google’s Daydream platform. The app is one of the first to deliver news and live market data inside a virtual 3-D environment. We speak with Himesh Patel, Dow Jones creative director, and Roger Kenny, design tech lead for VR at the Wall Street Journal, about how the app came together

Our weekly program is edited and produced by Rachel Wise, Reuben Stern and a team of students at the Reynolds Journalism Institute at the Missouri School of Journalism.
