Virtual Reality: Introduction

Welcome

A virtual reality mask.Virtual Reality (VR) is a computer-simulated 3D experience – representing imaginary or real environments -- in which a person is immersed by using specific VR equipment. The level of sensory and physical interaction depends on the type of VR equipment and the design of the VR experience. A VR headset is always required and handheld controllers are sometimes required.
