Future
Basically, VR, or virtual reality, means “reality that is not real”.
When you wear a VR headset equipped with sensors and a screen, you are surrounded by three-D images, sounds and other sensory information, which creates a super-realistic effect called “presence”. Though you know the sensory information surrounding you is not real, part of your brain believes it is—and acts accordingly.
VR is widely used in education, medicine, entertainment, shopping and travelling.
The barriers include time, cost and technical limitations.
There are endless possibilities.
