Visitors followed the journey of the Hijra through a virtual-reality simulation of its route, 360° virtual tours, and interactive screens presenting its stages and events.
The MetaLife team equipped the exhibition with interactive screens covering a total of 100 square metres, five virtual-reality headsets presenting simulations of the Hijra and of Islamic mosques, and an interactive robot that guided and engaged with visitors.
