VIRTUAL REALITY BY SAMI ABBASI 8H
WHAT IS VIRTUAL REALITY? Virtual reality is a simulated 3D environment that enables users to explore and interact with a virtual surrounding in a way that approximates reality, as it is perceived through the users' senses. The environment is created with computer hardware and software, although users might also need to wear devices such as helmets or goggles to interact with the environment. The more deeply users can immerse themselves in a VR environment and block out their physical surroundings.
WHAT ARE THE MAIN TYPES OF VIRTUAL REALITY? Non-immersive: This type of VR typically refers to a 3D simulated environment that's acquired through a computer screen. Semi-immersive: This type of VR offers a partial virtual experience that's accessed through a computer screen or some type of glasses or headset. Fully immersive: This type of VR delivers the greatest level of virtual reality, completely submerging the user in the simulated 3D world with glover, treadmills, gaming, healthcare
WHAT ARE THE USES OF VIRTUAL REALITY? Training: VR makes it possible to train personnel safely, efficiently and cost- effectively. Education: VR offers educational institutions new technique for teaching and learning. Healthcare: VR has the potential to advantages individuals across the healthcare industry, including patients, practitioners and researchers.
Architecture: Using VR, architects can not only envision what theyre building but understand how it feels as well. Automotive: VR helps car manufacturers in analyzing road scenarios and conduct the way cars move in the road. Occupational Safety: Occupational safety and health (OSH) is a concern for workplaces with machinery or natural hazards.
AUGMENTED REALITY Augmented reality also is sometimes referred to as a type of virtual reality, although many would argue that it is a separate but related field. With augmented reality, virtual simulations are overlaid onto real-world environments in order to enhance or augment those environments. For example, a furniture retailer might provide an app that enables users to point their phones at a room and visualize what a new chair or table might look like in that setting.
WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VIRTUAL REALITY AND AUGMENTED REALITY? Virtual reality (VR) is an all-enveloping artificial and fully immersive experience that obscures the natural world. Augmented reality (AR) enhances users real-world views with digital overlays that incorporate artificial objects.
