Fombona-Pascual, Alba; Fombona, Javier; Vazquez-Cano, Esteban – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2022
Atomic/molecular visualization for human sight is usually generated by a software that reproduces a 3D reality on a 2D screen. Although Virtual Reality (VR) software was originally developed for the gaming industry, now it is used in academia for chemistry teaching. This work reviews the scientific literature on 3D visualization in stereoscopic…
