WHAT IS VIRTUAL REALITY?

Virtual Reality (VR) is a computer-generated environment with scenes and objects that appear to be real, making the user feel they are doused in their surroundings. This context is formed inside a machine known as a Virtual Reality headset. VR allows us to involve ourselves in video games or movies as if we were one of the characters. We feel like we are doing the job and are realistic af. We can play any sport we like, we can perform surgeries, make food and do much other stuff to maximize performance.
Although this may seem remarkably ahead of its time, its roots are not as recent as we may feel. The very first virtual reality device was considered to be Sensorama. It was a machine that had built-in seat and it played 3D movies, gave of smells, and generated vibrations to make the experience as vivid as possible. This device was brought into existence back as far as the mid-1950s. Following technological and software advancements over the coming years brought with them a continuous evolution both in projects and in interface design.

That's enough about the theory that is propelling us into the future. Which sectors is Virtual Reality actually being used in today? Medicine, culture, education, and architecture are some of the areas that have already taken hold of this technology.

In near future, Imagine going into virtual reality when deciding what furniture to buy for your residence. You will be able to walk around in a virtual living room, bedroom, kitchen, etc, and know what kind of furniture would fit in your house. In those simulations, you will be able to try out different items of furniture. So virtual reality would make many things possible.
