This document discusses virtual reality, including its definition, history, types, hardware, applications, and advantages/disadvantages. Virtual reality is defined as a computer-generated simulation of an environment that users can interact with. The document outlines the different types of VR, including immersive, non-immersive, and window-on-world. It also discusses the input and output hardware used in VR and applications in fields like military, healthcare, education, and entertainment. While VR allows for realistic experiences and experimentation, the technology can be complex and expensive.

4. What is Virtual Reality?
 Virtual Reality means feeling the imaginary (virtual)
world rather than the real one . The imaginary world
is a simulation running in a computer.
 Virtual reality is the term used for computer
generated 3D environments that allow the user to
enter and interact with alternate realities.
 The definition of “Virtual Realty” is what we
experience as human being

5. History
 More than one person has been involved in the
development of this technological system.
 In 1950’s visionary cinematography Morton Hailing
built a single user console called Sensorama . This
enabled the user watch television in 3 dimensional
ways.

6. Types of Virtual Reality
Immersive Virtual Reality
Non-immersive Virtual reality
Windows on world Virtual Reality

7. Immersive Virtual Reality
 Immersion into virtual reality is a perception of being
physically present in a non-physical world.
Element of virtual reality environment that increase
the immersiveness of the experience.
1. Continuity of surroundings
2. Conformance to human vision
3. Freedom of movement
4. Physical interaction
5. Physical feedback

8. Non-immersive Virtual Reality
 Large display , but doesn't surround the user.

9. Window on world Virtual Reality
 Desktop- based virtual reality involved displaying a
3-diamentional virtual on regular desktop display
with out use of any specialize tracking
environment.
