How FWA connects furries on VR with the real world

Virtual platforms are expanding – COVID-19 has boosted its growth since 2020.

And now, even as the pandemic slows down, furries still rely on virtual platforms to communicate.

More furry conventions are thus trying to bring the best of both virtual and physical environments together. That is to cater to a brand new audience online who may never be able to attend conventions.

In a collaboration, VR event Furality and US furcon Furry Weekend Atlanta, or FWA, “breached the barriers”. Furality’s online world now features a viewscreen; on-site at FWA, a special interaction room is made.

This let attendees at Furality’s online world and this year’s Furry Weekend Atlanta see and interact with each other. Some even used the system to talk with sign language.

Furries received this very positively.

FWA’s 2022 event saw 7,300 attendees.

FWA如何将线上兽友与线下世界联系起来

虚拟平台正在扩大——2019冠状病毒自2020年以来推动了其增长。

而现在，即使疫情正逐渐放缓，兽友们仍然依靠虚拟平台进行交流。

因此，更多的兽展正试图将线上和线下环境的优点结合起来。这是为了迎合网上的可能永远无法参加一个兽展的全新观众。

在一次合作中，VR活动Furality和美国兽展亚特兰大毛兽周末（简称FWA）”打破了围墙”。Furality的在线世界现在有一个视屏；同时，FWA在现场制作了一个特殊的互动室。

这让参加Furality在线世界和今年的亚特兰大毛兽周末的参会者有效地与对方进行互动。有些人甚至使用该系统用手语交谈。

兽友们对此表示了非常积极的反应。FWA今年活动有7300名参会者。
