Micron Technology introduced a VR immersive experience at its booth at the 9th China International Import Expo (CIIE) in Shanghai, the first time it has offered one at the show. Visitors put on VR equipment and virtually walk into a memory and storage chip manufacturing cleanroom, getting a close look at advanced manufacturing without visiting a factory.
The booth was themed around deepening Micron's storage work in China and also presented its memory and storage technology, local manufacturing, talent development and sustainability work. The expo is scheduled for 5 to 10 November 2026 at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). A Caiwen News reporter saw the VR experience on site during the expo.
How the experience works
Booth staff explained that the real fab is a cleanroom that people can enter only after putting on special cleanroom suits and going through a series of purification steps. The VR experience removes that barrier: wearing the headset, visitors can step into the cleanroom virtually and learn how memory and storage chips are made.
