ACADEMICS
ISTANBUL BILGI UNIVERSITY​
EXTENDING YOUNG MINDS
​
​
​
We value guiding the new generation to future technologies by sharing our knowledge, experiences and enterprise network.
We are in partnership with Istanbul Bilgi University and in collaboration with Prof. Dr. Ahmet Denker since 2018. For fall and spring semesters, our teammates lecture accredited courses in the faculty of engineering in scope of extended realities:
​
-
Augmented Reality (AR): is created by enhancing real life objects/environments with a digital overlay.
-
Virtual Reality (VR): is an immersive digital environment that can replicate lifelike physical environments or portray a fictional artificial world, and makes the user feel they are immersed in that environment in real-life.
-
Mixed Reality (MR):
As GarageATLAS team, we are the first in Turkey and one of the rare in Worldwide to achieve Extended Realities in academic level with the following bundle of courses that complete each other to make students gain required creative and technical skills to become professionals to develop extended realities applications:
​
​
SPACE GEOMETRY AND PRO MODELING TECHNIQUES

AKDENIZ UNIVERSITY​
UNDERWATER ARCHEOLOGY RESEARCH AND VIRTUAL RECONSTRUCTION
​
​
We do not only value the future technologies but we value the reality of our ancestors in history. We collaborate with Akdeniz University in Antalya, Turkey and with Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hakan Öniz since 2005. With the university team, we participate in Tunç Wreck underwater archeological site dives.
​
Architecture team of GarageAtlas carries the architectural project design & build of Kemer Underwater Archeological Museum in Antalya, Turkey which will display the wrecks and ruins of this underwater discovery.
