WHAT IS VIRTUAL REALITY?
The definition of Virtual Reality can be described from the two terms ‘Virtual’ and ‘Reality’. The term ‘Virtual’ refers to something that is not physically existing as such but made by software to appear to do so whereas ‘Reality’ is the state of everything that actually exists.
So from this we know that ‘Virtual Reality’ is ‘Almost Reality’. Us human beings simulate and understand reality through our sense of sight, taste, smell, touch and hearing. This input sensory information gets processed and assimilated by our brains so that we can get a comprehensive understanding of the environment (reality) surrounding us. Logically then if we adjust the input information of our senses then our perception of reality will also be altered. You are experiencing a reality that isn’t actually there but from your viewpoint it is real.
Generally Virtual Reality is delivered through a device that is worn that provides the user with a computer generated version of reality. The user is completely immersed into a simulated reality that is projected onto a VR head mounted display (HMD). In other words with Virtual Reality you can be transported into to another World whilst being at the comfort of your desk or living room.

WHY VIRTUAL REALITY?
For 100 years, we’ve become accustomed to watching content on a fixed frame, which has served us well. But we’ve always been removed from the story because we’ve only ever been able to tell a story from a 3rd person point-of-view. Virtual reality, for the first time in history, allows us to immerse ourselves inside the story and experience it as if we were physically present in the virtual reality environment, whether it is real or computer generated.
Virtual Reality has the power to completely shift how we use content to engage with, educate and entertain fans, clients, employees and buyers. In a virtual reality environment you can show products and infrastructure without being present at the location where such infrastructure or products are based.
