Virtual Reality Virtual Reality is a stimulation of reality in a way that it is similar to the real world or different from it. It is usually in a form of 360 degree view. It simulates and involves many if our senses. This helps the user to have an interaction with the 3D world in the simulated environment. The most acknowledged aspect of VR is the head mounted display.

Brief History of Virtual Reality

It all be began over centuries ago. Many scientists and students made great contributions to it development. As they made head ways into it development. But was not as popular until Palmer Luckey released the oculus rift in 2012 that revived the industry of Virtual technology. This created a way for the industry to begain new standards in the field of VR. Many gaming companies and companies like Facebook and Microsoft have invested so much money into VR technologies. Facebook recently started their Metaverse which is focused on VR technology.

Diffrence between Virtual Reality and argumented Reality.

Virtual Reality and Augumented Reality is closely related in a way that augumented technology has an interaction with the things in the real environment whiles Virtual Reality focuses 100% on the simulated environment.

In Augumebted Reality (AR) the compter uses the view point of the camera and superimpose them on with 3D generated images of the computer with real life objects.

Vurtual reality focuses on entirely on the simulated world. This focuses on the movements of the eye in the Virtual environment. When the eyes of the user moves tge graphics reacts according to the user so no objects are superimposed on the other .

One of the important aspects of Virtual Reality.
The most important aspects of Virtual Reality is sound. Humans respond more quickly to sounds even before the can see. So for it to work properly, sound accuracy is a must if this technology is to be developed even further.There is more research done in order to integrate more of the human senses into this technology and software.

Virtual Reality is a combination of both technology(hardware) and software. The hardware aspect is tge head mounted display and the software aspects has to do with the kinds of meta verses that are being created. Most video games are being available to be played using VR technology.

There arwe three major players in this tech aspects of VR. They are the industries that make VR hardwares in the world and ownsmajorityof the market. The first is Oculus which is owned by Facebook after the bought in 2014 and brought about the Oculus Rift and its subsequent series. Facebook has brought about it's own Metaverse which they will capitalise on soon.

The second is HTC which mas it own by tge name Vive and has also brought more series such as cosmos a d tge focus. The third but not the least is Sony. As they they have a big market with the play station it makes it easy to market their product making them very competitive to have a slice of VR market.

In conclusion,
VR technology and software is still being perfected as of now. But that does not stop you from enjoying what they have to offer. The three major players of VR technologies offers some good VR head sets that you should try out. And more Metaverses are being built to expand and give varieties to the users as each games or program will be on different worlds in the metaverse. This exciting new tech will revolutionise the world.
