UnderwaterVR is a virtual reality experience designed to simulate underwater activities such as scuba diving. It provides a safe and accessible way for learners to understand the complexities and sensations of diving without the risks associated with real-world underwater environments.

This VR simulation serves as a training tool for beginners, allowing users to experience underwater navigation, buoyancy control, and spatial awareness in a controlled setting. The project aims to enhance educational outcomes for diving schools and marine-related experiences.
